I keep seeing them around and just loved them.Never able to take a class so I winged it. I first turned the picture into a cartoon type and was messing around with the program and somehow came up with it all black/white and greys except for the eyes. I loved it and went from there.
This was done in Memory of Hobo kitty. He was a pretty tuxedo cat with brilliant green eyes.

I do know from trying to make a pattern of Andy(my avatar) that the more contrast the easier it is.
