Thanks for tu opinión!

Sometimes, a simple black-and-white line hides a wild story. This drawing of a leopard it’s a symbol of quiet strength, smooth movement, and that mysterious energy of creatures that hide among leaves and shadows. And now, it’s waiting for you to bring it to life with colors. The best part? You don’t have to make it “perfect.” The magic is in having fun, mixing shades, and letting your hands speak for you. There are spots, yes—but they could be red, purple, or even silver if you’re feeling bold.

Coloring is a great way to get to know animals better. While you choose the tone for its fur or decide how to shade its ear, you’re observing, thinking, imagining… just like real artists and explorers do.

Ideas and tips for colouring the leopard

The key to making this leopard come alive lies in how you handle the spots, shadows, and fur texture. It’s not just about filling spaces—it’s about playing with contrast and layers. Start by noticing the direction of the fur. Even though the drawing is black and white, the lines already hint at movement. Try using colored pencils in soft layers to give volume. Golden, ochre, orange, and light brown tones work great for the body. Then use dark brown or black to define the spots. But don’t stick strictly to realism: if you want to make it magical or surreal, go for it. A sky-blue leopard with green spots? Why not?

One good trick is to start with a light base—like pale yellow or beige—and layer stronger colors on top to create depth. Use the pencil tip for fine details and the side for large soft areas. If you’re using markers, go gently to avoid over-saturating the paper. You can mix techniques: pencil for fur, marker for spots, and wax crayons for the background. Leave some light areas near the muzzle, eyes, and ears so it looks like light is shining from one side.

Learn more about leopards

Did you know that leopards are some of the stealthiest big cats in the world? They move silently, can climb trees while carrying prey in their jaws, and are incredibly strong. Leopards live in Africa and Asia, and their looks change depending on the region. Those in colder places have thicker, paler fur; those in warmer areas are more golden and slender.

Some leopards have even become famous. In African stories, the leopard is clever, fast, and almost invisible. And in real life, there’s a special one: the Amur leopard, found between Russia and China. It’s critically endangered—there are only a few left. That’s why learning about them is also about learning how to care for and protect nature.
