Please PAUSE the "How to Draw a Bobcat" video after each step to draw at your own pace.




For the first few steps, don't press down too hard with your pencil. Use light, smooth strokes to begin.

Step 1: Draw two circles as guides for the bobcat's body. They don't have to be perfect. They're just guides. Pay attention to the spacing between them. If the circles are too far apart, your bobcat will be too long.

Step 2: Draw a smaller circle above the right one as a guide for the head. Notice that the two circles overlap a bit.

Step 3: Draw two intersecting lines inside the head. These will help you place the bobcat's facial features later.

Step 4: Draw a smaller circle on the lower half of the head as a guide for the bobcat's muzzle.

Step 5: Draw two triangle-like shapes on either side of the head for the bobcat's ears.
