Draw a circle next to the large circle.

Connect the two circles using two curved lines.

For each ear, enclose a half circle within a larger half circle.

Draw the polar bear’s feet. Use a curved line to enclose an irregular shape to form a foot. For each foot, draw a few short curved lines to form two or more toes.

Draw the polar bear’s short fluffy tail with a curved line.

For each eye, draw a tiny circle within a circle, and shade between the two circles. Draw a curved line above each eye to indicate eyebrows.
