BEAR

One man asks another ,"Have you ever hunted bear?." The other man replies," No, but I've been shooting in my shorts!" :-).

Did you know Grizzly Bear is the state animal of California. They are large, heavy, omnivorous carnivores that walk flat on the soles of their feet and have shaggy fur and a very short tail. The bear we are going to draw here is a simple one and he is smiling with his cub.

 

• Write a big O for the face.
• Please do not get impatient. We now have to write six Us and two Os. Write a small O inside the face,a little towards the bottom. Write another O inside this small O for the nose.
• Write two small upside down U touching the upper side of big O inside the face to make the outer part of eyes.
• Write two upside down U for the ears. Cover these ears with a bigger set of upside down U.
• Put two dots for eyes.
• Write a w for mouth.

 

• Write a turned around L for the back, you can think ofit as half of the capital alphabet T. Write an I for front. 
• Write two upside down Us, one for the tail and one to define the legs.

 

•  Join the tip of the legs with Is and write a L to make the third leg. The fourth one is hidden.

 I have made a bear and its cub here.I hope you will have some fun too.

Did you know why bears have fur coats?

Because they'd look stupid in anoraks! :-)

CAT

What is a Cat's favorite subject?
 Meow-sic :-).

Cats belong to a family of carnivores(flesh eaters), including the lion, tiger. Cats are the only animal that walk on their claws, not the pads of their feet.They are soft-furred animal domesticated since ancient times. President Abraham Lincoln loved cats. He had four of them while he lived in the White House. 

Purr Purr..lets draw.

• Start by writing two Os for the face. One small one inside the big one. A flat O that is an oval would even be better for face.
• Write a W for mouth.
• Put two dots for eyes and few dots on each side of mouth for whiskers.

• Write two upside down V for ears. Cover those V with bigger Upside down Vs. Write a couple of Is for whiskers.
• Write two Is for body.
• Write a upside down U between Is to make foot.
• Write two flat Cs on each side of the body.
• To make the paws we write small W at the end of the feet . We make the other two feet with Cs.
• We write J for tail.

By the way did you know what is the favorite song of cats?

Three Blind Mice :-).

BUTTERFLY2

BUTTERFLY2

Butterflies are among the most colorful and beautiful insects. They flutter from flower to flower, sometimes pausing to eat nectar or rest their wings. As they span out, their colors are on display for everyone to see. Butterflies are beautiful.

By the way , did you know why Johnny threw butter out of his window?

Because he wanted to see the butter fly.

Time to draw another butterfly. The real one though :-). It is very similar to the first one. Only the wings are different.

• Write a long narrow U.
• Write an o for the head.
• Mark the upper side of U with three equally spaced dots.

• Join the first two dots with upside down U. That makes the first wing.
• From the middle of first wring write another upside down U touching the third dot.

• For the antennas, this time we write two small Os and join them with tilted Is.
• Write Us inside each wing again.
• Color, and the butterfly is ready. I have drawn two here as we all need friends to play with.

I hope Johnny now knows what a butterfly is :-). 

BUNNY

Where does a bunny go for brunch?-IHOP!

They do  have yummy pancakes, but the best I like about them is the various type of syrups...yummy.

Another question, why do bunnies get good grades in math? 

Because they multiply like crazy.

Well, I cannot guarantee good grade in maths but you will definitely impress your teacher and your friends with this cute little bunny.

 

• Start by writing an O
• Mark two dots on the top for the ears.
• Lets draw the ears now. They are U and V joined together. We write a V at each dot and then join the edges of V with upside down U.

 

• Write a big U for the body.
• Write a W for the forelegs.

• Write a small C.

• Join the edge of C and the free edge of U with another U.

•  Join the mid of W(fore leg) to the middle of U(hind leg) with I. Write a small u for nose, another small u for tail.
• Join the nose to the bottom of the face with I. Put two dots for eyes.

 Funny Bunny!!!

BUTTERFLY3

What do a moth, a butterfly and a fish have in common?

Scales!

Everyone knows that fish have scales. But, what about moths and butterflies? Did you know that the powder-like substance on the wings of moths and butterflies is actually tiny layers of scales. These layers of scales help give butterflies and moths their beautiful color. They also give out a special smell for mating.

Lets draw now.

 

•  Start with a small o.
• Write a really long U for the body.
• Mark both sides of U with three equally spaced dots.

 

• Write a  M on top joining the first two dots and a W on the other side joining the first two dots. You can also think of it as the number 3 with the edges of 3 stretched to join the first two dots.
• Join the second and third dots with U on each side.
• For the antennas we write two small os.

 

•  Join the os with tilted Is to the top of the head, Put two dots for eyes.
• You can also make wings on one side only.

Fly butterfly fly !!

By the way, where do butterflies go to read books?

At branch libraries! :-).

BUTTERFLY 1

BUTTERFLY1

Why did the butterfly not go to dance?
Because it was a Moth Ball :-).

Never mind we will make our own little butterflies dance.They are one of the most delicate and most beautiful creations. The Science Museum of San Francisco has a beautiful collection of butterflies. You can stay there for hours together. 

• Start with a long narrow U.
• Write a small o for the head.
• Mark three equally spaced dots on upper side of U.

• Write M,  with the ends of M touching the first two dots in U. You can also think of it as a 3 with its ends pulled to join the first two dots of U.
• Write another slanted U for the second wing.
• Join its ends to the second and third dot in U.
• Write two more Us inside each wing. Put a dot for eye.

• Antennas are two 9s.

Fly little butterflies, fly!! The butterflies are ready to dance . I have drawn two together. After all we all need a dancing partner :-). 



BIRD

BIRD

Why do birds fly south for the winter? Because it’s too far to walk! :-)

Well, we will draw a flying bird later, lets start with a sitting bird. It is a simple bird ready to tweet, good for any occasion :-).Lets draw now. It is a few more steps but they are just a few alphabets.

 

• Start with capital letter B for body. 
• Write a tilted M for beak. You can also write two Vs instead. 
• Put dot for eye.
