“How do I make the kitten show up. I
don't want to put a black line around the kitten because I've
been doing that for a long time and it
doesn't look good. “
“Drawing a white kitten on a white porch is tricky but it can be done. If you look and
compare different objects that are white, you will see that there are different colors of
white. Some whites are brighter than others, some look a little yellow, some look lavender.
“
“Gosh, it's amazing how you are tackling this project and exploring all angles to find
solutions to your questions. You've got a great attitude too! ”
“Thanks for your information about the white for the kitten. That will help me for
a long time. I love the suggestion for the
lavender. “
