How to Draw a Bobcat
- Head outline.
Let’s start drawing the bobcat with a rounded outline of the head. Then add a fluffy texture to the top of the head using wavy lines.
- Add eyes and nose.
Draw two horizontal ovals, and then add two filled circles inside. This will make the eyes. Then, just below the level of the eye, draw the nose in the shape of an inverted triangle.
- Head and face details.
On the head, draw the ears using triangular shapes. Also, along the nose, draw the outline of the upper part of the mouth.
- Details of the ears and mouth.
Using curved lines, draw the outline of the ears to give volume. And then draw the bottom of the mouth.
- Finish drawing the head.
Add curved lines at the tips of the ears, forming the characteristic tufts on the ears. Also detail the texture of the facial fur on the sides of the cheeks.
- Draw the body.
Next, you need to draw the large and long body.
- Start drawing the legs.
Draw long front and hind legs as shown in the instruction.
- Draw two more legs and the tail.
Similarly, the other and hind legs are in the background. Draw the short tail using overlapping curved lines
- Leg and tail details.
Draw horizontal lines at the bottom of the legs. And then just below the vertical lines, so you get the fingers. Next, draw a curved line across the bobcat’s tail.
- Add spots.
Draw characteristic spots of different sizes over the entire surface of the body.
- Color your bobcat.
Bobcats usually have brown or orange fur with dark spots. You can use colored pencils or markers. Focus on the colors that are used in the instructions, and you can also dream up and come up with a unique pattern.
