This is a picture I took of my friend's cat. He loves to climb trees and I really liked the way the picture turned out so I thought it would be a good art project! I used a dull blue piece of paper so that I didn't have to color the sky. The tree was probably the most fun thing to draw outbid the whole piece because I got to use a wide variety of different colors because of the dramatic lighting on the bark. Whereas the cat was several colors as well but they were all similar colors that I had to blend together to get the right color that matched the cat. I added the whiskers to his face in white gel pen and shaded over the ones that were in the shadows and left the ones in the sun bright white.
