Lee Billingham Art's video: Drawing Cat 1 of a 3 Cat Commission in Coloured Pencils on Grey Tone Paper

Hi Boys and Girls. Thanks for clicking on one of my videos again, it means a lot to me and I appreciate all your support. Today I have a work in progress video as I am working on a commission again. This time I am working on a cat called Toggle, who sadly passed away on my birthday on October 17th. He belonged to an old school friend of mine. I am drawing a three cat collage of toggle and this is the first cat, which is not quite complete yet. There will be an update on the 2nd cat video. I used Faber Castell Polychromos and Caran D'Ache Luminance coloured pencils on this drawing, along with Touch New markers and a Posca White Marker for highlights. As usual, I sketched out my drawing lightly and then took more time on it to get the base drawing. I then rubbed out most of it until barely visible with a kneaded eraser. I do this so that I can still see a light underdrawing to work with, but also to get rid of most of the graphite, which doesn't look too good under the coloured pencil. I used a ruler in this drawing for the framework of the front porch of the house. The Music tracks for this one are on a free attribution license from YouTube Music Library.
