To draw Hello Kitty, you’ll build her from simple shapes: an oval head, a gumdrop body, two triangle ears, and a bow on her upper left. Her face — two dot eyes, a small oval nose, and whiskers — sits along a slight diagonal guideline that keeps everything aligned. The whole drawing breaks down into about 6 steps and works for complete beginners.

Drawing Tips for Drawing Hello Kitty
- Think of the kitty’s head as an oval, and her body is a gumdrop shape (squished on the bottom). The ears are just 2 triangles.
- The head of our Hello Kitty is slightly tilted to the left. That’s why I included a horizontal guide line that goes across the kitty’s head to show the angle. Keep everything on that line (the eyes, nose, whiskers) so it looks consistent and natural.
- Experiment with different colors. Hello Kitty is perfect for coloring! You can change her outfit and bow color, and you can even add patterns to her costume. Have fun!

FAQ
Hello Kitty’s body is built from three basic shapes: an oval for the head, a gumdrop (rounded rectangle, flat on the bottom) for the body, and two small triangles for the ears. Her bow is placed on the upper left of her head.
Draw a faint diagonal guideline across the head before adding facial features. Because Hello Kitty’s head tilts slightly to the left, this guide ensures the eyes, nose, and whiskers all sit at a consistent angle rather than looking uneven.
Yes. The tutorial uses only basic shapes and avoids complex curves or proportions. Each feature is placed one at a time, and erasing and redrawing is expected — that’s part of the learning process.
