Black Cat Charcoal Commissioned Drawing Part 5 By EdgarsArt
Today i think will be the last day of me working on this. I am only hours away from finishing this finally.
I can say that at first i was kind of nervous because of the position of the cat, and just because it is completely black. I have never drawn a black cat, only ones where the contrast is pretty big. But i think now looking at it that this might even be one of the best cat works i have ever did!

I really worked hard on the layers, the fur, i am trying to make it smooth. I want the whole body to feel like it is one self, not like divided in parts. Because i cant draw it all at one, i am going through stages, steps and that is a challenge, in the end to make it look the same. Every stage.
Especially in large works that is actually i think the hardest part. There are works that are taking 100 hours and months go by, but still you have to maintain the same style of drawing. You cant start with one way and then continue completely different. Especially when you have to draw animals with large fur, like lions, tigers. Actually in this work i have already used 4 charcoal pencils. This is just because when i have it a little less than half left, i am taking new one. That is because i cant hold it anymore in the same position i was holding it when it was still larger, so the fur is looking different that way.
There are many many aspects aside from just the type of the work. A lot of thinking has be done just about technique and practical way of drawing.
