Day 57 LUMINOUS
The prompt for today is LUMINOUS so I had to attempt more cat eyes, but this time I thought I would do green eyes on a tabby cat and directly on the index card.
This is not a tabby cat lol. I had intentions to make one but it ended up being a tortoiseshell cat, or a calico cat.
Index card cardboard is not a good choice for pastel as it just can’t hold enough – it has no tooth basically – but I made an attempt anyway.
In hindsight I should have tried some gesso or ground on top of the index card to see if that would hold more pastel or not, but it’s done now and it’s not too bad, though the eyes could be more luminous.
As always, thanks for reading, and have a great week!
