Molly In The Window<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here\u2019s the current progress on my miniature drawing of Molly the cat. If you’re screen resolution is 1280 x 800, you’re seeing this drawing at about actual size.<\/p>\n

After creating a light line drawing on my paper, I brushed value into the background because it\u2019s easier to create a soft edged texture, like Molly\u2019s fur, over a background that\u2019s already there rather than the other way around. Then I hatched in Molly, even though the background is not completely done.<\/p>\n

Because I\u2019m working from such a contrasty photo reference, I\u2019ll have to carefully balance values as I work, playing the background values against Molly\u2019s until they look like some version of reality. I suspect the reality I come up with will be somewhere between what I actually saw and what the reference shows me now.<\/p>\n

I love this drawing already. I hope I can honor it by drawing it well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
