Steps
Traditional Easter Bunny
- Draw a stick figure to begin. Remember that you'll be drawing a bunny, not a human, so create an initial sketch or perhaps look at a sketch of a rabbit which someone else has done which is similar to the type of picture you aim to draw and pay attention to the proportions and the shape of the legs.
- Add shapes and guidelines to round out your drawing.
- Add detail to the head. This is a good time to also fill in detail to the ears.
- Draw front paws for your rabbit.
- Add a tail and feet. Round out the legs if you haven't done so already.
- Add detail as desired. Consider drawing clothes, eggs, or a basket to your bunny.
- Outline the drawing with permanent media. Use anything you like (for example, ink or paint). Wait a few moments and erase all the unnecessary pencil guidelines.
- Color your Easter Bunny and you're done! Add gradients or texture as you see fit.
Cartoon Easter Bunny
- Draw a big circle in the center upper part of the page.
- Sketch the cheeks. On each side of the big circle draw a smaller circle.
- Sketch the floppy bunny ears. On top of each side the circle draw two long and thin overlapping ovals.
- Under the head circle sketch the upper paws. Draw two, long and curved at the middle, teardrop shapes.
- Make a basket in his arms. Over both sketched arms draw a big oval.
- Under the basket sketch, add the lower part of the body. Draw a semicircle a bit flat, starting on left and right sides of the basket.
- Finish the sketch with the lower paws. Under the lower body’s semicircle draw two unfinished ovals.
- Outline the outer shape of the bunny and add details like facial features, some hair tufts on the forehead and inside the ears and a bigger one as a collar, a few eggs in the basket.
- Carefully erase the sketch lines and start adding color.
Realistic Easter Bunny
- Sketch the head. Draw a big oval, in the middle to the part of the page.
- Sketch the floppy bunny ears! On top of each side of the oval draw two long and thin ovals.
- Draw the body. Draw over the right part of the head and right ear a big oval.
- Sketch the back paws. Under the lower part of the body oval draw a flat and long oval. And a semicircle, facing down, inside the right part of the body oval.
- Add a small oval at the right side of the body oval. This will be a cute and fluffy tail.
- Sketch the front paws. Under the left side of the body semicircle and in front of the back paws, draw two sets of overlapping ovals.
- Sketch a flat oval, that later will become a basket full of Easter eggs.
- Outline the outer shape of the bunny and add details. Don't forget the big eye, cute little nose, little paws, the fluffy little tail, and some hair tufts all over the body. Shape the basket and draw a few easter eggs inside it.
- Carefully erase the sketch lines and start adding color. Finished!
