Greetings to the Crypto Community!
Today, I managed to steal a few minutes from my busy work schedule to practice my drawing skills.
Without any fancy art supplies at hand, I had to make do with a simple notebook and a black ballpoint pen.
For my reference, I chose a picture of an adorable kitten.
I began carefully, sketching out the kitten's outline.
Then, I moved on to shading the darker areas of the drawing.
Everything seemed to progress nicely until I noticed a mistake in the proportions of the animal.
In my sketch, the kitten's head ended up looking disproportionately small compared to the original image.
I tried to fix this by slightly shading the background to create a better balance.
You can see the progress in the screenshot above.
After that, I continued working on the details of the drawing.
Using a white marker, I added highlights to the kitten’s pupils to give its eyes more life.
I also attempted to “whiten” part of the shadowed area on the kitten's face, though I think that was a bit unnecessary in hindsight.
And so, here’s the final result.
In the accompanying photo, you can compare my drawing to the original image and see how close (or far!) I came.
That’s all for my post today.
I hope you enjoyed it!
With gratitude, I say goodbye and wish you all a wonderful day! 😊
