Cheetah by Deborah Gale

Lovely image Deborah. Would it be enhanced by some details of some of the hairs on the fur?

Thank-you Jean, it probably would do but as I am a beginner not sure how I would go about this. Probably shading? any advice greatly appreciated. Debi

Nice work, soft colours.

Thanks Carole. Can't take all the credit as this is one of Vivien Walters email workshops. - Cheetah comes pre drawn and then you receive instructions on how to 'paint' him/her.. It was fun to do though. It showed me how to shade/blend and use pastels a different way to get effects. Thanks Debi

Its very good even with help!!

Thank you for your kind comments Linda. Debi

You have made a really good job of your first with Vivien, well done.

Thank you Pam for your kind comments - I was tempted to keep putting more Pastels on - I never know when to stop 'tinkering' even when its finished. Many thanks debi
