The first lesson is featuring a cute mostly made from basic circles, rectangles and squares. First, a template is created using all these basic shapes. Then, simple lines are added inside the head to help place the facial features correctly.

Once you are done, you can draw the cat using perfect curved lines made from pointed ends. Don't forget to add fun details like hair near the cheeks and whiskers. The animal is filled with plain colors. In this case, you can use a bright orange color for the head and the body. A bright blue color is used inside the eyes.
