Learn to draw a cuddly collection of 30 characterful cats in 6 easy stages!
In no more than 6 simple stages, Polly Pinder shows you how to draw and color 30 cats and kittens. Make up your own menagerie of feline friends – from a slinky Siamese to a puffed-up Persian; a tabby on the prowl to a tortoiseshell with a shiny bell.
Purr-fect for budding artists of all ages, each cute kitten is developed in no more than 6 easy stages, from a rough sketch of the basic shapes to a full-color pet portrait in watercolor or colored pencil – whatever medium you choose.
Within the book's easy-to-follow landscape format, see the cats come to life across the pages, then recreate them yourself on paper or in your sketchbook.
The book contains material previously published in How to Draw Cats (2008), PLUS 5 pretty kitties drawn specially for this new volume!
