SOMETIMES WE USE MATERIALS THAT REQUIRE ADULT SUPERVISION...LIKE SCISSORS...SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY AROUND WHENEVER YOU DO CARTOONING!

Draw a bell, a football and an onion. All are great shapes for drawing cats.
Bell: Draw an upside down triangle in the middle of the shape. This will be your cat’s nose.
Draw 2 curved lines coming out of the bottom for a smile, and dots and lines for whiskers.
Draw a large oval above nose for eyes, draw a line that cuts in half and add in eyelashes. Draw eyes under lines and add eyebrows.
Draw 2 triangles on top for ears, and create a tongue using the bottom of the bell.
Football: Follow the same steps above. But this time, draw 2 small circles for eyes.
Onion: An onion has a strong smell, so you want to draw a strong cat. Put the triangle nose way up high, and make his smile huge.
Draw in tongue, and 2 small eyes that are close together.
Make the eyebrows facing down, so he looks mischievous, and his hair going straight up.
Using this technique, we have created 3 different personalities. Key: simplify their features!
