cat and cushion


In contrast to the precision of knitting, I needed to do a loose, fast sketch. I have a ballpoint that creates a mess of blobs and slow-drying line, so used that to imply nubby fabric.

I was holding the pen and brush like a knitting needle, just to see what came out. Feels out of control, a nice balance to neat rows of stitches. Done on Aquabee Super Deluxe paper.

You are so introspective, to relate your drawing technique to knitting. Very cool. :)
