Illustrations from "How to Draw a Cat"

In this lesson I teach you how to draw a cat using my step by step technique. Each step is fully illustrated with detail close-ups and I thoroughly explain how to create each part of the cat as the drawing develops.

"Sweet Mouzer" is a 46 page PDF document. It includes a 4 page introduction that explains my technique, a tool list, a line drawing for you to trace, a printable gray scale and an enlarged finished drawing for you to refer to as you work. The lesson is 30 pages long and includes 67 illustrations.

In addition to the main instructions, this lesson includes a "Fur Workshop" that explains how to create specific fur characteristics. The workshop is 8 pages long with 21 illustrations. It features:

  • Creating a Fur Crease
  • Creating the Napkin Fur Tufts
  • Merging Light Fur into Dark Fur
  • Creating Soft Edged Stripe Details
  • Creating Soft Fur Edges
