Drawing A Picture of Irina The Cat

I finally finished my drawing of Irina the cat, and this blog will document the progress from start to finish.

First I drew Irina’s body and then sketched in her fur.

Behind Irina I began drawing in a moon since she is sitting next to the window with a view of the night sky.

It was quite exciting to realize I had reached the half-way point with color in the sky directly behind Irina with a blue violet colored pencil.  The twinkling stars in the night sky consisted of a bronze colored pencil that I used to create these formations.

A cherry colored pencil was used to shade in the table where Irina the cat was perched.

It was quite exciting to be almost finished with the drawing as I completed filling in the region around Irina’s legs.

The completed drawing of Irina the cat turned out pretty well, and I was quite excited to finally select a frame of the illustration I have been working on for the last few days.
