I drew NIJI, a shelter cat that came to my house three years ago, with pencils and watercolors.


At the beginning of the drawing I was careful not to concentrate on a particular area or to make a hasty decision.
It is important to draw the entire paper in a roughly balanced manner.


In this case, I kept the background dark so that the cat would stand out.


The paper is coarse watercolor paper, so I use gauze and a rubbing pen to make sure the shadow areas and low facing areas are well densified.


Finishing the texture of the body hair patterns, flow, and beard, the pencil drawing is completed.
After this, coloring is done with transparent watercolor.


Completion.
