A cartoon sheep is the easiest thing to draw – a sheep is basically a circle for the head, 2 ears, and one cloud for a body. Oh yes, and legs, and maybe a tail. That’s it.
I’ll show you now 2 kinds of sheep which are extremely easy to draw, and are actually a very good thing to start with when learning how to draw.
Final images:

Sheep No. I – The fluffy cloud sheep
This is an innocent sheep, cotton – fluffy. My sheep has a gazing sad look in her eyes, but you can replace that easily with a happy look just by creating bigger eyes with white area in them.

Cartoon tends to make the weirdest, hairiest snorting animals look really cute. This doesn’t apply to cats, which are cute anyway, of course.
So this time we’re gonna draw a really cute pink piggy! the method will be free doodling, so it might take a few tries to create each line just right, but remember that it’s still doodling > incomplete lines and shapes are really ok, and actually makes the cartoon look great.
This will be the final image:

I always start with the head: create 2 circles, one inside the other. The inside circle will be the nose. Then, draw the ears just above the nose, and the eyes in both sides of it. Add 2 nostrils and a mouth – in any expression you like.

My sister has a thing with cats. Well, I do to – 2 of this kind are running around my house as we speak. But she’s got something with a specific kind of smiling cats, which I’ll show you at the end of this post…
Out final image will be:

- To draw the cat we’ll use a very common method of drawing – creating circles and shapes as a base for the final drawing, and then removing unneeded lines and adjusting others, to get the final drawing.
- Since we’ll be drawing and than deleting lines, I recommend using a pencil :)
Creating the base – Body Building
Draw a circle for the head, and a rounded shape for the body. Notice that the bigger body shape gets smaller as it gets closer to the head shape.
