Cats and Halloween Drawing

One way to draw a Halloween cat is to mix things up by adding in a pumpkin. It’s easy to draw a head peeking out of the hole, and the orange color always brightens things up too.

This project would work well for younger classes, say first and second grade level, as none of the shapes are particularly hard to draw. The cat face starts with a circle, and even the pumpkin is basically a bucket shape with some lines in it.

The other good news is that if the small touch of making the bumpy edge at the bottom of the pumpkin gets overlooked by some, and their pumpkin has all smooth edges, it’s not big deal. The bumps are a small detail and none of the overall charm will be lost. The cute cat and pumpkin face, with all those fun Halloween colors, will look fun no matter what level of detail is included.

Got a Minute?

Great! Then you can see a preview of this lesson by clicking on the image.

It will take you to my one minute YouTube video that was made to show how easy this drawing is to do, when you take it one step at a time.

Sometimes you just need to see how a drawing happens, to take the mystery out of the process.

Getting Started with Drawing Guides

You may have noticed that all of the tutorials on this website have a dashed vertical line and horizontal line running through each step. If students make their own centered lines on their own paper, before drawing, they will have an easy reference to follow. All they need to do is fold their sheet of paper in half both ways, and make a crease. The best part is, by the time the drawing is done, the creases will have disappeared!
