A kitten lies across a wide porch step between two potted leafy plants. Its front paws hang over the near edge, and its striped tail curves down on the right. The pots sit behind the cat at opposite sides. Broad leaves overlap above the pots, with thin veins dividing their pointed surfaces.

medium difficulty
Leaf veins, pot rims and tail stripes add medium detail around the open step face.
Skills to try
  • Separating overlapping leaves: The plants have leaves crossing in front of one another above each pot.
Suggested age: About 7–10 years
Fine leaf veins require control, but the wide step and kitten body provide easier sections. This is a suggestion; comfort with the shapes matters more than age.

  2. Use a pale fur base near the striped tail so it does not merge with the step shadow.
