You can live with cats, love them — and draw them!
They’re headstrong, they’re funny, cheeky, and they’re just adorable — and you can capture all that and more in expressive drawings with just a few pen strokes. Cartoonist and cat lover Peng reveals how it works — and proves once again that anyone can draw with a bit of practice!
Thanks to his simple step-by-step instructions, which always provide plenty of room for alternatives and your own ideas, a host of different cat pictures emerge in no time— from minimalist sketches to real small paintings. You’re soon able to set these four-legged friends in motion ( or just let them hang around), capture their feelings and tell little stories in an uncomplicated way. It’s also easy to design funny greetings cards and trippy tattoos.
It’s not so much about creating the most realistic representation of a cat, but more about having the courage to experiment and just doodle away. The drawings can be scribbly, simple, or more elaborate — what matters is that they come from the heart!
