Free course: How to draw a character
A huge head, huge ears, and a ball of yarn to bat at. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then print the practice sheet and draw it again.
Watch it first
Draw it step by step
New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.
Draw one big circle. On a kitten the head is the biggest part, so make it bigger than you think.
Two tall triangles on top. Kitten ears look too big for the head, and that is what makes it a kitten.
Two big round eyes, a tiny triangle nose, and a small smile under it. Big eyes make a kitten look sweet.
A small round body under the head. Make it narrower than the head — a kitten is nearly all head.
Two little paws at the bottom, one front paw up in the air, and a tail with a curl at the end.
Three whisker dots on each cheek, then a ball of yarn with a loose thread trailing out of it. Now this kitten is yours.
Now draw a kitten who is stuck inside the yarn.
Practice on paper
Faint lines to trace, all six mini steps, and an empty box to draw your own. One page, works in black and white.
