How to Draw a Kitten

Step 1.


Let's get started with this lesson on how to draw a kitten. Draw a big circle for the kitten's head and then add the facial guidelines. You will then draw two slightly curved in lines for the kitten's ears and then draw a small egg shape for the body   

Step 2.


You will now use the facial guidelines to draw in the eyes like you see here and then color in the pupils leaving a small white spot for the glare effect. Draw a cute little kitten nose and then move to the next step.

Step 3.


Okay, sketch out the shape of the kittens ears and then draw the cute hair for the top of his head and make sure that a piece is hanging on his forehead. Next, sketch in the eyebrows, and then draw his cute kitten mouth. Add some whiskers and then dr   

Step 4.


Now you will start sketching out the shape of the kitten's face and make sure you make it look all fluffy and cute. Add some fluff to the ears for detail and definition.

Step 5.


Now that the head and face is all done for the kitten, you will now sketch out the cute fluffy looking chest and then begin drawing out the front legs and paws. Notice that I drew the legs turning inward to give the kitten more of an innocent look.

Step 6.


Well this is your last drawing step. All you have to do now is finish sketching out the front legs and then draw the back end of the kitten which includes the small tail, and back leg. Erase all the guidelines and shapes that you drew in step one.

Step 7.


Here he is all done and ready to color. I hope you had a bunch of fun with this tutorial on "how to draw a kitten step by step". You can now choose a shade to color your kitten in with.

Description: Hello all I am back today with another drawing lesson for my fellow artist. I have the most cutest little domestic animal tutorial that I am about to submit. Since I don’t have a regular tutorial on a kitten, I will be showing you “how to draw a kitten step by step”. This has got to be one of the best cat or kitten tutorials I have ever submitted. I colored him in grey because that is the color of my kitten, and I also drew him to look like a runt because my kitty is a runt too. Kittens are so much fun, and they are wicked cuddly. Whenever I choose to draw a cat or dog, I have to visualize the look and style of the animal that I am about to draw. To do this, I just start scribbling on my tablet or sketch book. Once a good idea comes to mind for the cat or dog, I will start sketching it out in more detail, and then when the sketching process is done, I will start drawing the image out. I had so much fun drawing my tutorials yesterday. So much so, I can’t wait until I upload them for you all. I know for a guaranteed fact that this lesson on “how to draw a kitten”, will be favorited by many members. I mean look at the kitten's face, how can you deny that look that he is giving you? Anyways, I think you will have an awesome and lovable time drawing this kitten. Maybe I will do a puppy to make it a match. Yeah, I think I will do a lesson tomorrow on a cute German Shepherd puppy that looks my pooch. I will be back later with more drawing fun so try and stay tuned in to see what I have in store for you guys next. Peace people, and happy drawing!
