Portrait of Pipsqueak

This is a back-dated post for my archive project, where I am copying over every piece of art I have ever submitted to DeviantArt, with the original submission date or watermarked year stamp, so a complete archive of my work can be found on this website.

Portrait of Pipsqueak by Sidney Eileen, Chalk pastel pencils, conte crayon, colored pencil, and 8B graphite on colored pastel paper, 6"x10" ~8 hours

Another cute kitten drawing, this one in color. It’s not as detailed as it could have been had I drawn it entirely in colored pencil, but I didn’t have my normal colored pencils with me yesterday when I drew it, so I made due with the media I had on-hand. The black is the only colored pencil. The white is mostly pastel, and some conte crayon. The orange is partially sepia sketch media, and partially the paper color showing through. The pink is pastel. The grey shading is a base of 8B graphite covered with pastel.
