Not a pair of gloves or hand cleaner in sight. I did this, this morning at the U3A Art group that Wendy runs.
I know the mouth is a funny shape but otherwise I am quite pleased with this as I could never draw animals of any sort. Last time I tried a cat it looked like a RAT!!

Yes but the cat's face is at an angle, turned towards us, so it would be as you have drawn it. So, very well done Sue.

The texture of the fur looks real and you've definitely captured the lustre of the eyes.
Well done Sue !!

I particularly like the whiskers..knowing how hard it is to do very fine lines with pastels...excellent.

All I can say is thank you to my two teachers, one,namely Belle , who gave me confidence to have a go and stretch myself with pastels, and the other my friend Wendy ( Margaret) who gave the instruction for this particular cat picture. and is inspirational herself
Another is called for, my own cat when I get time amongst all my other hobbies. But this morning is CLEANING!

Stanley I have forgotten the cleaning for a couple of weeks now. I could have drawn a cat in the dust! However now I feel virtuous and can indulge my hobbies for another couple of weeks with no guilt!

I know the feeling. I often have a spell of displacement activity before starting a writing task amd perhaps a quick vacuum round when I reach a natural break.

You know when I worked I was meticulous. A good clean and doing the washing saturday morning, Bob did the shopping. No we are so often busy on a saturday it just gets a quick do when i can mamange it and a good clean every so often. Bathroom and kitchen of course are treated to a frequent clean, but as I say, I didn't retire to spend my life cleaning and having an immaculate house
