How to draw We Bare Bears – Easy Step by step instructions

Let’s start with the bottommost bear first – Ice Bear. He’s always the one doing all the heavy lifting. We’ll draw Panda over him and Grizz right on the top.

Let’s begin.

Step 1: Draw Ice Bear

We’ll start by drawing Ice Bear’s face.

Let’s start with the curve – this is going to be his head.

Next, I’m going to draw the bottom part of Ice Bear’s face. So, now, we are going to draw another curve but this is more elongated like this:

If you get this shape right, you’ll be able to draw any of the 3 bears in We Bare Bears really easily. Just keep practicing this shape to get the hang of drawing their faces in a side or 3/4th profile.

Let’s move on.

Next, I’m going to draw 2 small ears on Ice Bear’s head like this:

And now we can move on to the body since the face is done.

All the 3 bears have elongated oval-shaped bodies. So, I’m just going to draw an oval shape right next to the head like this:

Ice bear is nearly done – we need to draw his legs.

Just draw 2 small U shapes underneath the oval-shaped body.

The best part about drawing the bears from We Bare Bears is that their bodies are made from simple shapes.

Next, we can draw the back legs of Ice Bear like this.

Easy, isn’t it?

Let’s draw a small round tail at the end of Ice Bear’s bottom.

And finally, we can draw the face – To draw the face, draw 2 small round eyes, a small nose and a smile.

Now, we can clean up the overlapping lines by erasing the oval shape of the body that overlaps with the front legs like this:

And voila!

We’ve finished learning how to draw Ice Bear.

Now, let’s move on to drawing Panda and Grizz.

Step 2: Draw Panda Bear

We will start with the head of Panda Bear.

Panda’s face will be perfectly aligned with Ice Bear’s. You can draw dotted lines to check whether it’s aligned.

We’ll draw the 2 small curves and the ears just like before.

Now, comes the easy part, just draw an oval to draw Panda’s body like this:

Once you’re done drawing the body, draw the legs just like we did with Ice Bear.

I’m going to draw the tail and add the facial features as well.

Finally, I’ll clean up the overlapping lines.

And we’re done with Panda Bear too. Now, only Grizz is left.

Step 3: Draw Grizzly Bear

Grizzly is the leader and is always on top. Since his face is more raised because he’s always talking, the second curve in his face is slightly more extended like this:

Now, like before, draw the ears and the body.

Once you’re done drawing the oval-shaped body of Grizz Bear, draw his tail and legs.

I’m going to erase all the overlapping lines to clean up the drawing.

Lastly, I’ll add some claw lines on all the paws of the We Bare Bears.

Step 4: Color the We Bare Bears

Start by coloring Grizz brown.

Next, with a dark gray, I’ll color Panda’s ears and Panda’s eyes.

And then, I’ll add 2 giant stripes (using the same gray) on Panda Bear’s body. Don’t forget to color his tail!

Next, you can color Ice Bear a cream white.

And we’re finished!

We’ve learned how to draw and color We Bare Bears!
