- "Tale of the Tail" - 4th Scan - Final Drawing
The finished drawing (Sold) 3" x 4.75" on Claybord (white scratchboard) Ink (Pitt Art Markers & India Ink), watercolor, color pencil & scratching. The scratching on this drawing is still quite visible on the original, so decided to call it "scratchboard", but it could also be called "mixed media". Thanks to Erik Bowker for this reference photo of CJ the Sumatran Tiger cub, taken at the Sacramento Zoo. CJ is now a very handsome adult living at the Los Angeles Zoo. You can see two short videos on my IG page, showing the progression of this drawing - click here. - K9 Yukon - #4
This is the first pass with color (watercolor), he stlll needs a bit of work (scratching and coloring in select areas) to fine tune everything. - K9 Yukon - #1
Almost done with the scratching to the point where I can add color. The left side of his face needs to be scratched, then I'll ink to bring back dark areas, then add color. I'll also layer more fur over his "Sheriff" collar, but have to wait to do that until I have the color down first, so the fur can overlap that.
