These two cats were done with Derwent Graphitint water soluble pencils, and a bit of watercolor. Both were done in Canson XL sketchbook, 140 watercolor paper, about 6 x 6. Since I am still learning to use the pencils, they are overworked in areas. The ginger cat’s BG has marks from the pencil that scored the cheaper paper. Plus, I reworked the whiskers five or six times, so they are not very natural. I am not familiar with CP in general, but they seem rather labor intensive/time-consuming. And I am a very slow painter to start. The white cat (Kay’s cat, Mini Pearl) has a BG done with watercolor, as I could not imagine doing anything but small areas with pencils.
