Graphite Tips for Drawing French Bulldog Fur 🐶

In this graphite tutorial I'll show how to draw short fur in graphite when drawing this French Bulldog. I show the importance of layering, pencil technique and the use of various erasers to achieve maximum depth when drawing realistic fur in graphite.

I'm so excited to now be able to offer real time, in depth tutorials on Patreon and this French Bulldog drawing is one of the ones to feature in the launch. If you'd like to know how to draw short fur which can then be applied to so many other dog breeds this tutorial may be of interest =).
