Easy Cat Eye Drawing Tutorial

Are you an art enthusiast looking for a fun and creative project? Look no further! In this article, we will guide you through a step-by-step tutorial on how to draw a stunning cat eye using Derwent's Chromaflow pencils. With these easy-to-follow steps, even beginners can create a beautiful piece of art.

The first step is to define the dark outline of the eye. Start by outlining the shape of the eye and outer rim with Slate Grey. This will give you a good foundation for your drawing.

Next, move on to defining the pupil, highlight, and base layers. Use Slate Grey to outline the top of the eye, flicking the colour upwards and outwards to create an idea of the fur texture. Blend in a touch of Raisin in the outer right-hand corner and use varying pressure to create deeper areas of colour.

Continue filling in the outer area to the right of the eye with Slate Grey, blending it into the lower right-hand side as you go. For the lower left rim, apply Lavender Ash, Platinum, and Red Storm using gentle pressure and small circular strokes.

To add depth to your drawing, use Black to fill in the dark areas in the inner right-hand corner of the eye and the top of the eyeball. Follow this with a layer of Deep Sea and Coffee Bean to create a sense of dimension.

Finally, darken the whole of the inner outline with a sharp Black pencil. This will help your cat's eye stand out and give it a more realistic appearance.

By breaking down the drawing process into smaller steps, you can focus on one part at a time and avoid feeling overwhelmed. Remember to use reference images and experiment with different fur textures and colours to make your drawing unique.

With these easy steps, you'll be creating a stunning cat eye in no time. So why not give it a try? Grab your pencils and get creative!
