How to Draw Grizzly Bears

1

This tutorial about Grizzly bears starts with three head shots, the first one is a 3/4 head of a bear in normal mood. First of all, draw the guide lines: big, round head, thick muzzle and small ears.

2

Draw the form of the head, the neck and the small fluffy hears. When you draw the lines remember that bears have thick fur.

3

Draw fur into the ears, small eyes, big nose and mouth.

4

Add some strands of hair and you're done.

Now it's time to add details into the mouth: mostly teeth and tongue. Another important thing to draw to the mouth is the lower lip. When you're done with this step, add the details and the roaring grizzly is finished!

Here another roaring grizzly bear, but this time it's a front view. In this case the guide lines we have to draw are based on the circular form of the head and the open mouth, that is a sort of rectangle thinner in the lower part. Draw also the ears

Some notes about bear paws. Bears have five-toed paws and each toe has a thick, curved, nonretractile claw. Bears are plantigrade, this mean that they walk with the entire sole of the foot touching the ground (also humans are plantigrade).

Now, a full body grizzly. Draw the guidelines. Bears are very bulky and muscular (even if muscles are not visibile because of the thick coat), so draw simple forms that reflect these characteristics. Notice the pronounced hump that appears on its    

11

Draw head, outline of the muzzle, neck and ears.

12

Add eyes, nose and mouth.

13

Draw the sturdy forelegs and the big paws with the claws.

Draw the fat looking body and the hind legs. Remember: all the sole of the foot touch the ground.
