Easy How to Draw a Jaguar Tutorial and Jaguar Coloring Page
Below you’ll find an easy step-by-step tutorial for how to draw a Jaguar and a Jaguar Coloring Page. It’s an easy way to make the Jaguar look like they are coming to take a peek at you.
Adding some dimension to a drawing made of straight lines is one thing, as in making a rectangle look like a building. But making a very curvy animal seem like he’s walking towards you is quite another.
Not to worry though, if you keep the process as simple as you can. In this case, the jaguar face is very symmetrical and an easy place to start. Afterwards, a main torso shape will set you up for adding larger legs in the front, and slightly smaller legs in the back.
All of a sudden (bam!) you either have a friend or a foe coming right for you. A lesson in animals and perspective all rolled into one.
