Colored pencil on white paper
9"x12"
8 hours of work
Model: A sacred birman kitten, courtesy of ~claudiabirmans :[link]
This drawing was another attempt to achieve the same impact on white paper that I can achieve on black paper. I'm still not quite there, but I do like this drawing very much. Any thoughts, comments, and critiques are welcome. Yes, I know that the left eye is slightly larger than the right. My bad.
To create the whiskers, I used workable fixative on the otherwise finished piece, and then added them in white watercolor pencil.
Edit: Apparently, I need a new monitor. The "cutout" effect and over blue-ing were both a result of poor digital editing of my scan. After seeing a couple of the comments, I checked the image on a friend's computer and could see both, neither of which were visible on my own monitor. In fact, the image looked a bit yellow on my monitor. Hopefully the problems are fixed now. Thanks for letting me know.

Overall Vision Originality Technique ImpactHa, I write so many critiques. Anyway, I love how they eyes really pop and are center focus. It really shows his gaze and expression well. I also like the composition a lot and how the cat fades into the white paper. I've seen many drawings of things fading into black paper, but not any that I remember fading into white. I do think the fur might need a little extra colors besides grey, but that is also the way I draw and a style of mine - plus it looks great nonetheless. He has such a cute face and I just love that part the most. Great job!
