frogs and people and cats

Clarence and the chickens

Six months ago, my neighbor started a hobby of raising chickens. My cat Clarence is less than thrilled with them. In my opinion, chicken -watching is great entertainment!

After a longer than expected hiatus, I'm determined to get back to daily art posts. Unfortunately, life sometimes gets in the way of art. Not enough art makes me nervous. Making art is like a nice brain massage.

sleeping upside-down

Clarence has taken to sleeping the day away on my desk. It's kind of interesting to watch and listen to him while I'm working. Oh, the joys of working from home.

Clarence, my cat. He is completely orange and white, except for this black patch on his forehead. It’s the perfect target for a loaded paintbrush.

swish!

Clarence, today's catalyst for swishy action lines.

Clarence

My cat is orange and white with one black spot smack dab in the middle of his forehead. It's like a third eye.

the unfortunate cat fish

Clarence my cat seems to enjoy abusing this toy. One of the fish's eyeballs is ripped off, but I put it back on for this drawing.

Quick sketches of my cat, Clarence.

cat feet

Over the course of each moleskine sketchbook, I create a compilation of themed sketches. These are a few quick drawings of my cat Clarence's feet. Thank you for your patience, Clarence. Now it's on to small moleskine number eleven.

the birdfeeder and the hopeful cat

Throughout the winter I have had many birds feeding and living very close by. They are so much fun to observe. Clarence, my cat co-exists nicely with them for the most part. Only once, I found cardinal feathers on the ground. They are either the least suspecting, or the bravest of the birds.
