Speedy Cat

I’ve had a long day behind a computer and Husb and I spent a lovely evening visiting a friend so I only had time to do a very quick sketch for my blog this evening. Here’s Sparta the cat, caught just as she woke up. Don’t think she’s too pleased. Drawn with my Samsung GalaxyContinue reading “Speedy Cat”

I built the drawing by overlaying tones ontoContinue reading “Smudgy Finger”

Cat At The End Of A Long Day

The cats were pleased to see us and Ming the Merciless snuggled down on the stool next to my feet, in pink slippers and purple socks. My feet, that is, not Ming. It’s nice to go visiting butContinue reading “Cat At The End Of A Long Day”
