Going back to January 2018, our dear Little Ming died and I posted a lot of the drawings I had done of her throughout the 17 years she was with us… read the original post here. She was such a character, a tiny and fluffy Tortoiseshell and we still miss her. This is a FaberContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 64”

Back to January 2018 again for this week’s #Caturday sketchbook archive, a couple of pen sketches of Little Ming, our one-eyed fluffy tortoiseshell rescue cat relaxing.

#Caturday: Three Simple Scribbles
Three very quick and simple little sketches of Eric House Tiger on a cushion. I was concentrating on getting the outline rather than details, using a HB pencil into my A6 Indigo sketchbook. I have an exhibition, “Carved Heads And Other Creatures”, part of MANIFEST at The Workers Gallery in Ynyshir. The show runs untilContinue reading “#Caturday: Three Simple Scribbles”

We rescued her from a cruel and neglectful home when she was about a year old and she’s quite elderly in this drawing, about 17 years. IContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 61”

December 2017 and here’s a sketch of Little Ming, our furry tortie rescue cat. Husb and I had taken her from a very neglectful home after we found her emaciated, seriously ill from a lung infection and barely alive. We took her straight to a vet and paid for emergency treatment – her eye wasContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 58”
