Quite not easy, but with the help of this step-by-step tutorial, even children will cope with the drawing. So, prepare a simple pencil, paper and proceed to create a rabbit portrait.

Tools and materials:
1. White paper sheet;
2. A hard and soft simple pencil;
3. An eraser.

So, let's start to draw:

Step 1. The first step is to build a rabbit's head, using simple figures. For its basis, we use an oval, which will expand slightly to the bottom, which is not surprising, because there will be located the jaw of a rabbit:

Step 6. Draw two more (back) legs. They differ in their structure from the front. First of all, they are twice as long as the front paws. At the back we will draw a small tail of our rabbit:

Step 14. We continue to draw a fur from the neck. The strokes should be arranged according to the shape of the body of the beast, so that it turns out to be more voluminous. With an eraser gently remove the pencil on the edge of the cheeks and mouth. On these parts white wool grows:
