Description
For Week 31 of the Zooly Weekly Art Challenge, the prompt was to do a house cat. I drew a friend's cat, Chaco, who resides in Tesuque, New Mexico.This is 3.75" wide X 5.375" tall, inked in FW gold ochre ink, using an Esterbrook fine tip nib, and then colored using Prismacolor pencils, in a Moleskine sketchbook.

Excellent cat portrait! You really captured the feline “look”. Your attention to the eyes and the fur really paid off.

Thanks, Zed-Eye! As you can see, I'm still working at learning how to use these colored pencils.

Well I didn't know you were working on it and I don't know when you started but if I did I'd say it was well worth waiting for!

I started roughing it out in pencil about 2 weeks ago, and finished the ink drawing about a week ago. Then it just kept demanding more embellishments. Thanks again!
