Tips For Coloring Pets
What colors should I use for a cat coloring page?
To accurately depict a cat, you will mostly need grays, browns, and whites. However, cats come in multiple colors and patterns. For example: A Siamese cat is light with dark ears, paws, tail, and face. A tabby cat has a coat featuring distinctive stripes, dots, lines or swirling patterns.
How can I add more detail and realism to my pet cat coloring?
To add more detail, start with a base color for your cat. Then, use a darker shade of the same color to outline the individual hairs and stripes. Pay attention to the eyes as they are usually bright green or yellow. Using a lighter color to add reflections can make your cat’s eyes more lifelike.
Are there any remarkable features of pets I should pay attention to while coloring?
Yes, each pet has unique features. The main things to pay attention to when coloring pets would be their breed-specific features, like the long ears of a Basset Hound or the wrinkles of a Shar Pei. For example, when coloring a French Bulldog, you would want to include their ‘bat ears’, square head and muscular body.
Can you provide some interesting facts about pets that I could incorporate into my art?
Dogs have a sense of time and miss you when you’re gone. Cats make about 100 different sounds whereas dogs only make about ten. The world’s oldest known breed of domesticated dog dates back to 329 BC. Incorporating these facts into your artwork could provide an educational element.
