  • In this video I'll show how to draw a photo realistic cat in pastels. When drawing realistic fur in pastels the layering process, pencil technique and contrast are really important. Each play a role in bringing depth to the drawing which helps in creating that three dimensional, realistic portrait. Like dogs, cats have different coat lengths so it's important to replicate the right textures through adjusting how we use the pencils.

    Got to watch it today and this cat is so beautiful. I’m not ready to try different mediums yet, but I sure enjoy watching you. Sticking with acrylic for now and trying to sharpen my skills.

    Wonderful. How do you then frame this masterpiece to prevent it from being damaged?

    Gorgeous & Amazing! What brand of white did you use to get those fantastic thin white hairs? I just started with pastels using only Carbothello pencils but I cant get them that thin due to carbothello being too soft I think?. ..I was going to try white colored pencil next? Thanks for the great video.

    • @zaratomsart

      I use Carbothello and a generals white charcoal pencil but this is softer than the carbothello. Creating thin lines is more about the technique used rather than the pencil. My go to white is the carbothello and that can create super fine lines but the pressure applied, how we hold and move the pencil are what create the thin details. Pleased to hear the video was helpful 🥰
