I am excited to share my complete step-by-step masterclass on creating this adorable bunny portrait using just graphite and a charcoal pencils.
 
I’ve broken down my entire process into bite-sized, easy-to-follow steps that will take you from a blank page to this adorable, lifelike bunny.
 
You’ll get:
• Over 2 hours of detailed video instruction
• My exact materials list (nothing fancy or expensive!)
• Downloadable reference photo and template
• Lifetime access to all lesson
 
I’ve chosen this subject for us as bunnies can look really difficult to draw with their soft fur transitions, the delicate whiskers, that glassy eye with perfect highlights… it can all seem overwhelming!
But this portrait is actually perfect for beginners - I’ll break down every element - from those adorable upright ears (which are fantastic for practicing simple shapes) to that expressive eye (where you’ll learn value contrast) to all that gorgeous fur (perfect for practicing pencil pressure and directional strokes).
 
This masterclass is designed for complete beginners who’ve maybe never even held a pencil “properly” before.
We’ll start with simple shapes and build up to those beautiful textures that make this bunny come alive.
 
This class covers:
• Creating realistic fur that looks soft and touchable (not like spiky wire!)
• Capturing that alert, lifelike expression in the eye
• Creating depth in areas of white and light grey fur
• My key tips and tricks for a realistic, soft portrait
 
In this masterclass, we’ll explore how combining graphite with touches of charcoal creates depth that pure graphite alone struggles with.
 
Drawing this bunny teaches you so many transferable skills:
• How to create dimension through careful shading
 • How to suggest texture without drawing every single hair
• How to combine graphite with touches of charcoal for depth • How to create the illusion of softness through careful blending
• How to make an eye look moist and alive (it’s all about those highlights!)
 
Whether you’re picking up a pencil for the first time or you’ve been drawing for years but haven’t quite mastered graphite yet, this masterclass will give you the skills, confidence, and joy of creating something you’re truly proud of.
