How to Draw a Siamese Cat

13 steps · Medium · about 10 min

Draw a Siamese cat in 13 easy steps, about 10 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.

Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: chubby head.

Step 1: Chubby head
Near the top, draw a big egg head on its side, with chubby cheeks and 2 fur points on each.
Step 2: Pointy ears
On each top corner of the head, draw a tall pointy ear leaning out, with a small triangle inside.
Tip Ears lean out a little, like a cat listening.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the head's middle, draw 2 big oval eyes. Draw a sky blue circle and a black dot in each.
Tip Siamese cats have bright blue eyes.
Step 4: Nose and W smile
Below the eyes, draw a pink upside-down triangle nose. Hang a wide W smile from its point.
Step 5: Siamese mask
From the chin, draw a round mask up around the nose and smile, and back down to the chin.
Tip Keep the top of the mask below the eyes.
Step 6: Round body and chest
From under each cheek, draw a big C down to meet at the bottom. Add a U chest below.
Tip A fat pear hanging off the cheeks, never wider than the head.
Step 7: Front legs
From the chest line, draw 2 U legs down to mitten paws and back up. Add ankle and toe curves.
Tip Short legs, big paws: each mitten is wider than the leg.
Step 8: Back paws
On each side, draw a plump bun paw on the ground, poking out behind the front paw. Add toe curves.
Step 9: Long curling tail
From the right side, draw a long tail down behind the back paw, curling up to a round tip.
Step 10: Whiskers
Draw 3 whiskers on each cheek, starting on the fur points and fanning out past the head.
Step 11: The ground
Draw a flat ground line under the paws, from the left paw to a little past the tail.
Step 12: Cream fur
Colour the head, body and legs cream, around the eyes. Leave the mask, ears, paws and tail.
Tip Leave the eye whites white.
Step 13: Dark brown points
Colour the ears, the mask around the nose, all 4 paws and the tail dark brown.
