Let’s go over how to draw a Persian cat’s head front view. The design is mostly about the soft, rounded structure of the head, the short muzzle, and the thick layers of fur around the face. The features are pretty centralized, so getting the proportions lined up early helps everything fall into place as you add the fur details.
Key Details To Pay Attention To
- Round head shape with no sharp angles
- Small triangular ears with fur detail inside
- Large round eyes
- Very short muzzle with tiny triangular nose
- Curved mouth lines under the nose with a chin section
- Fur spreading outward from the face
- Dense fur texture under the chin and around the sides of the head
- Subtle fur lines above and between the eyes for extra volume
After you finish this Persian cat, you can also try drawing other breeds like the Maine Coon. You can also check the comprehensive tutorial which includes 19 different guides for different cat poses and styles, or simply spend a few minutes to sketch a simple kawaii cat playing with a ball.
Color Codes I Use For This Persian Cat Drawing Guide
To make the steps clear and easy to follow, I use the following color system:
- Red Color: shows the current step you are working on.
- Black Color: shows the lines you have already drawn in previous steps.
- Grey Color: shows the basic sketch outlines to help you place the elements correctly.
