20 Cute Rabbit Face Drawings for Beginners

This is the base every other face builds on — a simple front-facing bunny. The Y nose, two eyes, and two ears read instantly as a rabbit. Master it and the rest are small changes.

Step 1 draw a rounded head and two ears. Step 2 add a small Y nose in the center with a split mouth. Step 3 place two even eyes to the sides and add whisker pads.

Draw the nose first, then build the eyes and mouth around it.

Don’t set the eyes close together; wide-set eyes make it a rabbit.

This face focuses on getting the eyes in the right place. High and to the sides is what separates a rabbit from a cat. It is the key to a believable bunny face.

Step 1 draw the head with a light center line and a horizontal eye line high up. Step 2 place one eye on each side of center. Step 3 add a small highlight to each.

A realistic face adds soft fur and value to the features. Shading around the nose, eyes, and cheeks gives real form. It reads as a lifelike bunny.

Step 1 draw the features in accurate placement. Step 2 shade softly under the chin, around the eyes, and inside the ears. Step 3 add short fur strokes over the cheeks and forehead.

A surprised face with wide eyes and an O mouth is expressive and fun. The big round eyes read as startled. It shows emotion clearly.

Step 1 draw the head with ears straight up. Step 2 make both eyes big and round with highlights. Step 3 add a small round open mouth and raised brows.

Stand the ears bolt upright to match the surprised eyes.

Don’t draw a smile; a small round O mouth reads as surprise.

A tilted face reads as curious and charming. The small head tilt adds instant personality. It pairs a leaning face with matching ears.

Step 1 tilt the whole head to one side. Step 2 tip the features and eye line to match. Step 3 let one ear lean lower than the other.

Tilt the eye line with the head so the whole face leans together.

Don’t keep the features level when the head tilts; angle them all.

A sleepy face with half-closed eyes is cozy and calm. The drooping lids and relaxed features read as drowsy. It is a gentle, soft expression.

Step 1 draw the head with one ear flopped. Step 2 add half-closed drooping eyes. Step 3 add a small relaxed nose and mouth with tiny sleep marks.

A face with long, sweeping whiskers makes the whiskers the feature. The arcs add elegance and movement. It teaches confident whisker strokes.

Step 1 draw a simple bunny face with rounded pads. Step 2 sweep several long whiskers from each pad in varied arcs. Step 3 add a couple of shorter brow whiskers above the eyes.

A face framed by drooping lop ears is soft and sweet. The heavy ears cradle the cheeks. It gives the face a gentle, pet-rabbit feel.

Step 1 draw the round face. Step 2 hang two wide lop ears down the sides framing the cheeks. Step 3 add the features low and soft between them.

Let the lop ears overlap the sides of the face slightly to frame it.

Don’t stand the ears up; drooping ears frame the lop face.

A profile face shows the muzzle and one ear cleanly. Only one eye and the nose bump show, which is simple and elegant. It is a nice classic study.

Step 1 draw the head profile with a small nose bump at the front. Step 2 add one upright ear and one eye set back. Step 3 add whiskers sweeping forward from the nose.

Give the profile a soft nose bump so it clearly faces sideways.

Don’t add the far eye and ear; a profile shows only the near side.

A detailed close-up of the nose teaches soft realistic rendering. The Y nose, split lip, and fur around it come alive up close. It is a rewarding little study.

Step 1 draw the soft Y nose large. Step 2 add the split upper lip and shade the nostril creases. Step 3 surround it with short soft fur and a few whisker roots.

Soften the nose edges and shade the creases for a real, moist look.

Don’t draw a hard triangle; the soft shaded Y looks real.
