[Donna T]

Oh my goodness, those eyes! Excellent!

 

[Jade]

Oh thank you so much Sno
Thank you Donna ! How's your arm doing?

 

[Jade]

"Ears" the next stage
Btw I'm doing a tutorial on YT by Teresa Joy fine art. The best animal drawing tutorials I've found for colour pencils so far..

In other news I found a local "art bank" today and got some polychromos and other pencils and some wc paper.

 

[Grapes]

He's looking so good! Very nice fur colors.
I like how you use the grid. It helps, l did once a pencil self portrait with the grid method.

 

[Donna T]

I’m glad you found a good tutorial, Jade. I’m guessing you need to keep your pencils sharp to do the fur so well. (My hand is slowly healing. I can hold a pencil now but can’t put any pressure on it. It feels like there are a million muscles that need to get stronger.)

 

[Jade]

Here you go
Grapes, thank you! I will have to try a self portrait.
Donna, yes lots of sharpening! I found a "paw" pencil sharpener I want to buy too:


Oh, that must be hard with your hand. I'm glad things are moving in the right direction.

Any suggestions welcome.

 

[Donna T]

Nice finish! I suggest you treat yourself to that cute sharpener.

 

[Jade]

Thanks Donna it was satisfying to draw. Yep, I agree!

 

[stlukesguild]

Is that an electric sharpener? I need to go down to my basement and find my pencils, paper, and my electric sharpener. I really need to start drawing again… even if I need to work small for the time being.

 

[Enyaw]

Great finish Jade.

 

[Jade]

Thanks Wayne.

 

[Grapes]

Very well done the hair and all the detail. Gentle look in his eyes and the pose has character.
