These are a couple of my first ever notans. I used Tombow E15 (black) and N65 (grey) brush pens, and the white of the paper. (Odd how the highlights look white but the blank paper outside the borders looks grey. Must be a trick of the eyes—or my crappy phone camera.)
I didn’t focus on design in these so much as just trying to capture the right (simplified) values. I can see how this will be a really helpful exercise.
I sketched this from a photo of our previous cat, Monty, sleeping on his back. Sadly, he was hit by a car and died (a while ago). We got a new cat, Luna, near the end of last year, and she looks remarkably like Monty. I’ve tried to sketch her, but so far she hasn’t lay still long enough. I think she knows when I’m trying.
This is a rope ball that our cat plays with. It was attached to a scratching structure, but, as you can see from the shreaded bit at the top, she managed to free it. 🙂
A much-loved soft toy in our family. I made a bit of a mess of the background, but I captured the friendly look on Koala’s face, so I’m happy.
