The Materials You Will Need
Before you begin drawing, make sure you have the following materials:
- Pencil
- Eraser
- Drawing paper
Step 1: Sketch the Shape of the Eyes
Start by sketching the basic almond shape of the cat's eyes. Remember, cat eyes are slanted and tend to be more elongated than human eyes.
Step 2: Add the Iris and Pupil
Within the almond shape, draw the iris and pupil. The iris is usually a narrow oval shape, while the pupil is a small circle in the center.
Step 3: Add Details
Next, add details such as the eyelids, eyelashes, and reflections in the eyes to make them look more realistic.
Step 4: Shade and Add Texture
To give the eyes depth, shade the areas around the iris and pupil. You can also add texture to the fur around the eyes to make them look more realistic.
Step 5: Final Touches
Once you are satisfied with the overall look of the cat's eyes, make any final touches and adjustments to ensure they look lifelike.
Congratulations! You have successfully drawn a pair of cat eyes. Practice this guide multiple times to improve your skills and create more realistic drawings.
