b Class Description

Cats have a calm elegance that makes them a favourite subject for artists, and in this two-part class, you’ll learn how to bring that graceful presence to life through pencil drawing.

In Drawing Realistic Cats, we’ll go beyond just outlining a feline form—we’ll study how to layer, shade, and add realistic detail that makes your cat leap off the page with softness and personality.

🐾 What You’ll Learn in This Class:

🧰 Essential Tools – Discover the exact pencils and materials you need to create lifelike texture and detail.
🧱 Building the Foundation – Learn how to sketch and develop the shape and structure of the cat’s body.
👁️ Drawing Lifelike Eyes – Capture that expressive feline gaze by learning how to add depth and reflection.
🐈 Natural Hair Techniques – Use layering techniques to create a soft, believable fur effect.
🌾 Overlapping Hair & Texture – Learn how to avoid a flat look by drawing fur that naturally overlaps and flows.
Fine Details – Draw delicate whiskers, subtle shading, and fine features that bring realism to your drawing.

Whether you’re a cat lover or a budding realist, this class is a must for mastering soft textures and creating animal portraits that feel alive.
