100 Cats in 100 Days Cat # 21

Cat #21
 I had to keep my ankle and foot elevated and iced today and trying to paint was difficult.  Because of this issue I used a new medium on this cat.  Derwent has introduced a colored ink pencil called Inktense which flows with water and you can make the painting transparent or opaque.  Once it is dry, it is permanent and will accept more layers of paint or pencil and does not bleed.  It acts like acrylic paint.  I found it difficult to maintain sharp fine details so I used acrylic paint on the whiskers and eyes as I completed the piece.
