Three new kitty ACEOs

I have three new kitty ACEOs up for auction on ebay this week. I completed them last week. I just noticed that they are all facing the same direction. I took three very different approaches in drawing them and I like both the similiarities and the differences between the three pieces.

Kitty Sketch

This one was done in ballpoint ink and colored pencil for the eye and nose on watercolor paper. It is a lot more refined than I intended for it to be when I began. I like how it came out.

Thoughtful

This one was done with ballpoint ink and watercolor on acrylic paper. I love the permanency of the mark with ballpoint ink as well as how clean the drawings look when compared with graphite. The texture of the acrylic paper is challenging.

Watching the World Go By

This one was done in graphite and colored pencil on watercolor paper. I really like how the eye came out in this one.

All the reference photos for these kitties came from the morguefile.
