Angora Rabbit With Long Fluffy Fur Coloring Page

Coat is the whole subject here. The angora sits in profile with its head turned slightly toward you, and from the shoulder back the body disappears under long wavy locks that hang in ropes down the flank and pool near the feet. Every lock is drawn as a separate tapering strand, hundreds of them, running in the direction the hair falls. Do not try to fill between the strands. The drawing already carries its own tone, so a light wash over the whole body with a deeper shade pressed only into the lowest, shadowed locks gives a far better result and takes a fraction of the time. The face is much cleaner by contrast, with a single dark eye, a short muzzle, fine whiskers and two upright ears fringed along their edges. Four small feet show beneath the skirt of fur. Nothing else appears on the page, so the animal floats on white and the silhouette does all the work. Reach for pencils rather than markers, since ink will bleed across the narrow gaps between the strands.
