Here’s another facebook request – here’s the original photo
This is in fact a drawing gone bad with another drawing on top – slightly less bad but still bad. Blackness added for that “oh, it’s expressionism” feel trying to salvage things. Better luck next time!
That was drawing number 497

I think I am partial to the ones with the less “dense” and “busy” backgrounds….because this cat is a black cat…I think a subtle gray shading (maybe with graphite?) would make the cat “pop” more.
I agree with you 🙂 I wanted to get rid of the first attempt which was underneath the black background. I’m not too happy with this one, but I post everything.
oh man, now I’m tempted to try a black on black sketch! Looks hard!
All by accident! But thanks
Love this sketch!! You are too hard on yourself Thomas!!! 😉
Thanks 😉
Looks like he’s peering out of darkness. I like it.
Thanks 🙂 that might be it. Sometimes the reference photos are quite dark
