  • If you love colored pencils, then this project is definitely for you! In this video, you will learn my step-by-step method of drawing a realistic black cat using Fabre-Castell Polychromos. And, I’ve included a trick for the white whiskers, as well as my secret to avoiding smudging once your project is finished (be sure to watch until the end). If you are dying to draw something that will impress your friends, this project won’t disappoint. Don’t have Polychromos? No problem! Prismacolors work well too. So get out your art supplies, and get started. Enjoy!

    Thank you so very much for this tutorial! I appreciate how the unexpected colors blend to create the dimension and lighter values.
    I would like to make many cat drawings of the favorite cats over many years that I have had. I am known as the Cat Lady since I take care of the neighborhood cats that populate. (I spay & neuter those that I can.)
    I have a whimsical cat painting above my monitor. While I watched you draw the cat, my bottle-fed raised 3 yr old popped his head up above the screen. I was able to snap several pics of the painting, my cat, and the drawing on the screen. It was o adorable, and I will cherish that "3 types of cats in one frame" photo!

I love the way you go about drawing the face for beginners, you have a gift for teaching. I know this was 4 years ago - but want to thank you for taking the time to do it! Best wishes.

      Yes it is. Any watercolor paper works as long as it isn’t heavily textured. 😊

    What colors did you use for the eyes

    • @TheArtChik
      @TheArtChik  5 лет назад +1

      I used multiple colors for the eyes.. You’ll want to use more than one shade of the following colors: yellow, green, turquoise, black, gray, and a hint of orange, blue and brown. First apply the lightest shades, and build your colors, gradually getting darker from there 👍🏼.

  • @731cinbar
    @731cinbar 6 лет назад +4

    This cat is beautifully done! Unfortunately, acrylic paints WILL crack off over time. Especially with Polychromos which is oil based. Using colored pencil powder by Brush & Pencil allows you to make a white paint that is made for use with
    colored pencils!

    • @TheArtChik
      @TheArtChik  6 лет назад +2

      As a professional artist, I’ve always combined mediums throughout the years and have never experienced cracking/deterioration. Using acrylic paint over oil paint would definitely result in cracking, but it isn’t the same for acrylic paint on Polychromo pencils on paper; especially with such a small application. 😊👌🏼

      You can definitely improvise. It won’t turn out the exact same. It will be less realistic. All the colors I used, combined, make it look as realistic as it is. 🖤
