#Caturday Silhouette 16: More Stripey.

It’s #Caturday Saturday again and here’s a positive silhouette of Bill aka William ChatNoir, our sweet little black rescue cat. She’s on the same background as last #Caturday.

#Caturday Silhouette 10.

This #Caturday Saturday, here is my silhouette of little rescue cat Bill on top of a drawing I did a few years back of a “leper” stone in the little church in Llanrhidian on The Gower Peninsula. I cut the image of Bill from some very heavy textured paper that I recycled, I painted itContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette 10.”
