Easy How to draw a Leopard Tutorial Video and Leopard Coloring Page
Below you’ll find an easy step-by-step tutorial for how to draw a Leopard and a Leopard Coloring Page. Those cool spots are actually just drawn with crayons!
Leopard Drawing
Learning how to draw a leopard starts with a basic body. There’s the round head, long body and tail, which could be used as a start for all kinds of different cat-like animals.
What makes this a Leopard drawing is all about the pattern inside. They are known for their light coloring and dark spots. In real life, the patterns have a bit more detail and resemble the shape of a rose. But for this tutorial we can just color them like rings. The end result is very similar, and are easy for young artists to do.
