EDM #44

I started this cat sketch last week. As a laugh I should have shown you the bottom half, but, I thought better of that. If I ever get it close to looking like a cat I will post it at a later date. LOL

This first one is of course my first attempt, I wasn't happy with it although I think I should have left well enough alone.

I then tried to enhance it's features and royally messed up the unseen bottom half.
This appears to be another one of those keep trying attempts, which I surely will do.
I am at least happy it looks like a feline, which of course it is.

I have been quite busy in the last few days, and have a few challenges done, well at least in one stage or another and will post them later today.

I actually really like the first one - I think you captured the cat's personality beautifully. He looks like he has something to say. The first thing that popped into my head when I saw it was it would be really fun to take that sketch and use it as an embroidery pattern.

I admire you for taking on animal sketches... I have the two most beautiful cats, but I just don't dare. I think it is very hard! And you did great on both...if I can choose a favotire..it is the first one.

Tonniece, I think the previous and the after sketches are both good. It has different appeal. The first one is soft and dreamy, while the second one has a bolder look. Those feline green eyes are quite captivating!
