First, we’ll lay down the foundation of your panda’s face. With your pencil, draw an oval.

At about the center left area, draw an oval at a slant.

Now draw a circle touching the inner edge of the right eye mask.

Next are the panda’s ears! In the top left area of the oval, draw a half circle.

In the opposite righthand area, draw a second oval at a slant. Now your panda has eye masks!

For your panda’s nose, draw a small oval in the center, just beneath the eyes.

Draw another half circle on the top right area. You’ve just completed two panda ears.

Next we’ll add eyes. Draw a circle touching the inner edge of the left eye mask.

Shade in the ears, eye masks, and nose. Complete your panda by drawing a smile!
