Draw Hello Kitty

Are you a big fan of this cute little character? Do you want to draw this character? Hello Kitty is a popular character created by Sanrio. This is a quick and easy tutorial on how to draw Hello Kitty.

Steps

A Sitting Hello Kitty

  1. Draw a large oval for the head. Make sure you add in guidelines in the center of the oval for the eyes and nose: they are very helpful to draw the facial features. They should cross as seen, so you can use them in the next step when you add those features.
  2. Sketch in two ovals for the eyes. Between and below them, draw another small oval for her nose.
  3. Add two triangles for the ears, and three lines in each cheek for the whiskers. They can vary in length and flair; the usual style is shown here.
  4. At the left ear, start drawing her ribbon. Draw a large circle and two small circles on each side overlapping the large one. Draw two triangles in each side of the circle with curved sides.
  5. Draw a large, round-edged triangle. Draw two ovals for the feet.
  6. For the arms, draw ovals for each. Don't forget two circles for her thumb! Hello Kitty doesn't really have fingers, like a human, or paws, like a cat; her look is unique to her, so try hard to get it right.
  7. Add in her clothes. She usually wears a jumper and a shirt. (You can dress her in any kind of clothing you’d like, though!)
  8. Outline the image. Erase the guidelines and any other unnecessary marks.now your hello kitty's basic sketch is ready!!
  9. Color in your drawing. Use primarily shades of pink, with a dot of yellow for her nose and darker eyes/whiskers. You're done!

A Standing Hello Kitty

  1. Draw an oblong which matches the big head of Hello Kitty.
  2. Draw a purse-shape below the oblong. Draw a vertical line at the middle of the two shapes.
  3. Draw the hands or arms using curve lines. Draw small circles in each arm.
  4. Draw lines in the body for the clothes.
  5. Draw details for Hello Kitty’s ears, eyes, nose, and whiskers.
  6. Draw a flower at the right upper part of the head.
  7. Trace with a pen and erase unnecessary lines.
  8. Color to your liking!

Tips

  • Coloring will make Hello Kitty look more in character. Find out the usual shades that she has for her clothing and follow the originals as a start.
  • Don't use pens use pencils because with a pencil you can erase it instead of wasting papers.
  • Draw lightly in pencil so that you can easily erase mistakes.
  • If you want to use markers/watercolors to color your drawing, use paper that is relatively thick and line over your pencil more darkly before doing so.
  • Hello Kitty’s design is that of a simple anime character, so you definitely want to brush up on the basics of anime before drawing her.
  • If it's too hard try making a new version and get ideas from websites and pictures.
