How to Draw a Cartoon Black Cat: Easy Step-by-Step Art Lesson for Kids

Below you’ll find an easy step-by-step tutorial for how to draw a Cartoon Bacl Cat and a Cartoon Black Cat Coloring Page. Two fun lessons to choose from!

Cartoon Black Cat Drawing

The best part of learning how to draw a black cat is having fun with all the exaggerated shapes. Professional cartoon artists may make it look easy, but it takes time to learn how to make the most impact with just a few lines.

One example of this is the use of oversized heads. They just plain look funny, and also conveniently leave room for expressive eyes. And oversized eyes that are flat on top are a very simple way to make anyone, person or animal, look unhappy.

Looking for more of a challenge? Why not set off the background of your cat drawing with some very Halloween-y gradated color? This one was done with a yellow orange crayon on top, and a red orange crayon of the bottom. It takes a bit of overlapping and going back and forth to get that smooth coloring transition, but the end result is well worth it!
