About the Thoughtful Tiger Tutorial
“Since the first time I drew a tiger, I have been fascinated by them and would draw them everyday if I could,” she says. “They are so elegant and powerful.”
She chose Strathmore Toned Mixed Media Paper in tan because the color is neutral and provided a good base color for the golden colors in the tiger’s fur.
But it’s also a great paper for layering color to achieve rich detail. The paper has a smooth feel to the touch, but has plenty tooth for layering.
In addition to Prismacolor pencils, she used Brush & Pencil Titanium White mixed with Touch-Up Texture. The tutorial includes Peggy’s instructions for mixing these two products.
The tutorial also includes a full supply list, a full-size reference photo, and a full-size line drawing.
