1. Begin the cartoon fox outline by drawing the eyes. Use two curved lines to enclose a double-pointed shape for each eye.

Notice how the top line extends beyond the bottom at each inner corner, contouring part of the nose. Then, enclose two successively smaller circles inside each eye and shade between them.
