Kitty Graphite Wash

Kitty from Behind - watersoluble graphite pencil

I decided to change up my mediums and practice sketching with something other than watercolors. General’s Sketch & Wash pencil (made in the USA, yeaaaaaah!!!) is a nice change of pace and I highly recommend it as a quick, yet fun sketching tool.

It acts just like a pencil, however it is watersoluble, which means you can take a clean water-filled brush and move the graphite around.

Kitty Profile - watersoluble graphite pencil

You do not need watercolor paper either. I drew this in a sketchbook with 70lb paper.

Between the two sketches, I think I prefer the simple line contour drawings over the heavily shaded profile sketch. Quick and fun!

Purring Kitty Drawing plus sound

Purring Kitty graphite and conte on gray paper


My crooked eared little kitty closes her eyes, nods her head, purrs ever so softly, and falls fast asleep.
rumble rumble rumble rumble…….

Oh how I love when she does that! I can sit and listen to her for hours. It is a great stress reliever.

Maybe you are allergic to cats and cannot be around one? I don’t want you to miss out on this tranquil sound. Press the sound button and listen to purring kitty. Peaceful purring kitty.

Have a wonderful, peaceful day!
