And solemnly swear to bring from school only good grades, and with entreaty in the eyes assure that they will always wipe the dishes, lay them on the table and take out the garbage, and without any reminders to sit down for lessons ... Then in the course there are questions like: "But Sasha's parents Bought a dog, and why can not we? "- and promises to walk the puppy, clean up after him, train and pamper every possible way. If mom and dad are still firmly on their own, the case is blackmailed: "If you do not allow me to buy talking parrots, then I'll go live to my grandmother, she will let me!" And so on ad infinitum.

We make a mask

To do this, take a rectangular piece of dense colored paper, estimate the necessary dimensions so that the baby's face is closed, and the mask does not stick too much. Bend the paper in half along the line of the nose, then again at eye level.

Draw two ovals (eyes) and carefully cut them from the inside, making the eye sockets more than the eyes of the baby. On their line, at the level of the nose and on the forehead, near the middle of the eyebrows, make incisions, as if darts. They will allow to give the mask volume. Just put a few incisions on your forehead one on one and glue it. Now the darts on the temples were dispersed in different directions. There you need to paste pieces of paper. The layout is ready!

For beginners, there are many different options. Let's start with a nice cartoon kitten named Gav. For sure, this is one of the most favorite children's characters. The child will be carried away and, perhaps, for a while will stop asking you for a real four-fingered friend.

Kitten Gav

So, how to draw a cat in stages? Pencil, perhaps, will be best. And mistakes in the case of which you can correct, and paint then hand the baby, let it help you in your work.

How to draw a cat in stages?

In pencil you need to draw a circle in the center of the sheet - the future head of the kitten. Then on each side attach to it two small triangles - ears. Each triangle-ear is divided in half. From the circle down, draw a gracefully curved line - the back. At a short distance from her, draw another line, also slightly curved - the breast. Almost at the very bottom of the line of the back, draw a tail - long, protruding upward, slightly bent at the tip.

How to draw a cat's eyes so that they look like the eyes of a cartoon character? First, we draw two isosceles triangles with smoothed corners inside the circle-head. Then inside each of them, slightly receding from the base, we represent an arc, crossing the eye from edge to edge. Then, from the left side of the triangle-eye, just above the arc draw a semicircle. And in it - a point. The pupil itself needs to be painted green, the semicircle will be black, and the point should remain white, this will give playful liveliness to the look.

Then between the eyes, but just below draw a small triangle with a point upwards - a spout. And underneath it again a triangle, but already with the pointing-down half-open mouth. Attach the barbel sticking out in both directions and go to the paws. Our kitten sits half-face, therefore only three legs will be visible - both front and one back. Front - in the form of slightly expanding upward columns.

The back foot should be drawn in the form of an arc, one end fitting almost to the back. Then decorate the pads, fingers with claws, wipe the rubber band with unnecessary lines. Strongly pressing on a pencil, circle your body, eyes, tail, mustache, paws, ears. Funny kitten is ready!

We draw a purr

Now let's talk about how to draw a black cat. Let it be an ordinary domestic smooth-haired purr. Let's start with the head. Approximately in the middle of the sheet draw a flat horizontal line - this is the future forehead of the cat.

From its middle down, draw another perpendicular line, which ends with an arc bent upwards. Let these lines indicate the approximate size and location of the muzzle. From the ends of the horizontal line on both sides make two arcs convex parts outward. They should end about the same place as the vertical line. We will mark a place for the peephole, nose, and cat's mouth.

To do this, visually divide the vertical line into three parts and "cross out" it with two horizontal stripes. The upper one should be flat, and the edges of the bottom slightly curl upward. With one slightly curved line going from the head down, mark the cat's breast. Then, on the other side of the head, draw another curved line, but longer than the previous one - this will be the back. From the end of it, draw a horizontal line towards the breast - the future cat's tail. Let its tip slightly bend upwards.

Pencil from the head of two protruding in different directions "antenna" - this will be the ears. Arc from the center of the trunk to the tail mark the hind leg. Mark short lines with eyes, nose, cheeks. Then mark the front foot, let it connect with the breast, and the ground almost touches the tail. Form the stick-ears into pointed triangles. Give the tail "volume" - draw next to the first line of the tail of the second and connect them, rounding the place of unification.

The tail is as if superimposed on the hind foot, and its tip with pads and claws is not visible. But the front foot is visible completely - draw your fingers, give the paw the necessary bend. Then make out a muzzle - make almond-shaped eyes with round pupils and a spout resembling a heart in shape. From him in both directions draw a plump cheek. With a light herringbone, decorate the wool on the tail, on the cheeks, at the base of the paws. Draw the tip of the second foreleg - it seems to look out from behind the first so that only the fingers are visible.

Drawing a drawing

With thick lines, circle the main contours of all parts of the cat's body, wipe the excess lines with an elastic band. Because the cat is black, start hatching. Then stronger, then weakerly clicking on the pencil, draw the ears, back, tail. The strokes should be lighter than the color of the contours of the body. Let white only the tip of the tail and paws, breast and muzzle remain. Voila - you got a real home-made black purr!

Time to play

We hope that it is now clear how to draw a cat in stages with a pencil. If time allows, you can draw a few purrs of different colors and sizes, let the child paint them. Then help him carefully cut them, paste them on the cardboard, and he will have his own friends created by him. Ask the baby to give them names. For such paper kittens it is possible to equip a house, put it to sleep on a pillow, draw sausages and fish for them ... You can make cardboard stands for them so that seals can not only lie, but also stand.
