I've always been terrified to attempt to draw fur or hair. However, it's not as hard as you would think. I used prismacolors to draw my dog Abbey. I learned how to bring out the highlights on her fur by using a white gel pen and to darken the darker sections of her fur by layer the colors. I'm not completely satisfied with the complete drawing, so I've started another one and plan to add my other dog Godiva in as well.
