            I used to do a series of tutorials called pencil to paint, where I showed my steps and explained my choices. They took quite a bit of time so haven’t done one in a long time, but I found as with most things, that when I tried to teach others, I ended up learning myself. One of these days, I’ll start them up again.

      Love the eyes, I am still a bit leary trying white🙃

      • Profile picture of Sandra Strait
        Sandra Strait replied 5 days, 3 hours ago

        Thank you! In this case, I left the white of the paper because I was using traditional watercolor. I also did some color lifting along the edges to get that fluffy puffball look that kittens have.

        Thank you, Mary! Cats are crepuscular so they like the night-time. I say this mainly because it’s a rare occasion when I get to use the word crepuscular!

      That’s brilliant, Sandra. I see what you mean about softening the edges.

      • Profile picture of Sandra Strait
        Sandra Strait replied 4 days, 12 hours ago

        Thank you, Gary! I use the color-lifting a lot for fur. It depends on what paper I’m using because it works better on some than on others.

        Thank you, Lori! It is funny how most animals follow the rule of conservation of energy, while we humans have to look for ways to use it, lol.
