You'll begin by creating an underpainting, using a few pencils to map out the details and patterns of the big cat's fur. Then the real fun begins as you gradually add in color and watch her come to life. With clear instruction and photos for every step, Kathryn will show you how rewarding it can be to create wildlife. She'll introduce you to a grisaille technique which has been used by artists for hundreds of years, introduce you to some tools to help you succeed, and share plenty of great tips along the way. If you've felt overwhelmed trying to figure out how to get detail in your animal art, Kathryn will help you understand the drawing process and break it down for you into small, manageable steps that lead to success.
