This little kitty was part of a tutorial from "Realistic Pet Portraits in Color Pencil" by Anne deMille Flood. I used Crayola colored pencils, not the really nice ones she recommends. But I'm really happy with how it turned out.

So, for Christmas I got a set of Prismacolor pencils, but it's obvious that I need to get some that are not in the set of 48 that I got. It's okay, I can handle getting new art supplies!

In addition to getting the pencils, I also got a set of color pens, Faber-Castel Pitt brush pens. I am still trying to figure out how to best use them.

I'm really excited to get these new toys!
