So, during stream we got side tracked talking about Art and sketching.
We talked about how sketches can be super important to the art you are making.
It helps set up proportions and understand shapes of the things your drawing.

Step 1: Gesture
Try to NOT lift your pen off the drawing plate, and try to do it
in about 20 seconds. Just a fast set of shapes about what it looks like.

Step 2: Refine
Refine that gesture and get the shapes of the thing your drawing set up.
Where are the cheeks of this cat? Muzzle bumps?, where are the ear bases placed, and eyes?

Step 3: Super Refine
Now that things are shaped out, I was able to place the body parts, folds, fluffs, and features
where they needed to be. It's also important to know that I did not copy the sketch 2 shape
exactly. It looked too wide, so I fixed it up while I was going about it. A sketch is there to
show you where things should about go, and can be changed over time.

So, this is my cat named Cabbage. She loves the camera so much. She always
postes really nicely when I bring the camera out. you can find more pictures
