eye eye - non catpages members drawing

[EmmaG]

Before I start anymore Catpages members drawings, I wanted to have a go at some paper which was recommended to me, it is a very thick sandpaper like surface. I thought you all might like to see the drawing I am attempting on this paper.

The paper seem to be very good so far, it can take loads of layers.

That's different Emma .......... I would have thought it was difficult to draw on 'rough' paper :?
I like the eye already ;)

[jenny]

wow thats very good emma!
i look forward to seeing the finished piece.
how much do u charge for your drawings?

[EmmaG]

Mags, having a rough surface can help me get loads of layers down and blend the colours really well, but the surface musn't bee too rough.

Jenny there is no charge for my drawings, however if I draw a picture for one of the Catsey members, and they want to pay me (no obligation to), I ask for a donation to an animal charity of their choice.

[EmmaG]

update, just getting the rough colours down, I will sharpen up the finer details later.

I have now adjusted the pupil so it is more "round"

[EmmaG]

Pupil still needs some "tweeking", but that is all for now :)
