Yet another cat! “Purrince Siddhartha” in india ink and ballpoint pen
Here’s a drawing I did after getting a request from the owner over at the blog called Nylabluesmum – thanks for the request 🙂
This one ended up a little sketchy and quite crazy looking. The cat in question is none other than the famous “Purrince Siddhartha”… I know of a Prince Siddhartha – famous guy – but i think it’s someone else !
When I draw, I need to take my time and be precise if i want to have some kind of control over the outcome. If i draw quicker and perhaps a little more intuitively, it get unpredictable, but also a lot more fun. This is one of those quick sketches (admittedly most of what i do, I draw rather quickly) – This portrait ended up a little on the crazy side. Perhaps the owner can clarify if it’s fitting for Siddhartha.
Oh and if you think you spot a heart-shape in his left eye, you’re right !

I think you captured Dharth quite well. It must be difficult to sketch a black cat….what do you focus on?

It is hard! But at least when working from photos, i’ve noticed that black is rarely really black.. there’s always other colors mixed in.. Often blue. (i did some gorillas and other primates a few months back, and they’re surprisingly blue!) – other than that, i suppose it’s a matter of contrast.. where is it darkest and so on.. Another thing that’s very hard is drawing white fur with a black pen!!! It gets even harder if there’s a lot of light. Then the white just becomes plain paper–coloured without any clear lines or textures to go after..

Little Siddhartha is quite a character and still a youngster but your drawing captures that “sense of fun” that kittens have very well…………..I’m sure his Mom will love the drawing!

Yep he is a crazy young boy is sweet Siddhartha and you got him very well! I love how as with photography the black subjects pose new challenges..and indeed they have other shades that can be subtle but still add that contrast..as I have one of my cats black one dog black..and three black sheep…makes taking pictures….well tricky! 🙂 another lovely image Thomas 🙂 Fozziemum
