Lazy Bones

Husb is putting captions to my cat drawings, for a laugh. They’re so accurate too. This is Sparta Puss chilling out, drawn with a Faber Castell Pitt drawing pen into a very nice sketchbook made with banana leaf paper.    

Having A Laugh ….

The next day, when I used red ink, IContinue reading “A Happy Accident”

Number 96
