Tilly, Pastel Pencil on Strathmore Paper
Size 40cm x 30cm
£250 / $350
This little kitten seemed to have such a huge collar in relation to its head, so compared to the original photograph this collar is much smaller. Even so, I was worried it might overwhelm the tiny creature. However, I think the huge eyes and whiskers grab enough of the limelight that we overlook the dark collar.
Extra care was needed with the white whiskers - when you have to keep a pathway clear it's a little harder to be expressive with the fur. But, perseverance paid off and my reward was in the eyes and the soft fur around the chin.
