Learn More About The Scary Cat Drawing
Some people think cats are scary. Do you? Would you like to learn how to draw a scary cat?
Many people keep cats as pets, but others are frightened of these diminutive animals.
Why? Well, much of this discontent can be traced to ancient mythologies and superstitions concerning cats.
Cats were once thought to have mystical or magical powers and associate with goddesses. For example, the Egyptian goddess Bastet, Greek goddess Artemis, and the Roman goddess Diana could appear in cat form.

Later, these goddesses' associations with cats were ascribed to the Virgin Mary in Christian iconography.
Many cultures also have negative superstitions around cats, believing they are bad luck. For example, you may have heard someone say that it is bad luck if a black cat crosses your path.
In Medieval times, cats were thought to be supernatural beings who spent time with witches, enhancing their powers.
This evil cat drawing embraces the superstition about black cats. It also enhances some of the cat's real-life physical features - its sharp claws and its large eyes, which help it to see in the dark, sometimes eerily reflecting light.
