Daily Sketch: A Happily Dreaming Kitty

Mr. Sunshine always seems very pleased with himself, especially when he’s working on a good kitty dream. He settled himself on my desk, and with one paw extended to flex he occupies the entire pile of papers. In the background I have lots of little soft curlicues which my scanner

Daily Sketch Reprise: A Dozen Shades of Gray

It’s still surprising to me that this is one of the most popular of all my daily sketches. I love, love, Jelly Bean’s shape. He’s not fat, he’s not even too round, but somehow when he sits in certain positions I just want to pick him up he looks so

Daily Sketch: Self-portrait With Kublai for Hug Your Cat Day

One more cat hug on Hug Your Cat Day! This is Kublai, the cat who loved hugs, who gave hugs to everyone he met, and taught me to love hugs too! His favorite pastime was to leap up and throw his arms around my neck and bury his face in

Featured Artwork: In the Box

We all know that cats l-o-o-o-ve boxes, so it’s absolutely no surprise to see a cat in a box. But in this “daily sketch” of Sophie from 2004 I’d begun playing a little “trick” on her and ended up playing a “trick” on myself. First of all, we lived with

Daily Sketch: Sun at Sunset

The sun finally came out just before sunset. The problem with an overcast day is that nothing looks inspiring. But as soon as the sun came out, there was my painting. Modeled by…guess who? And apparently she did not approve because, after I’d scanned it and set it on my

Daily Sketch: Easy Like Sunday, the Sketch

“On Sundays, we can sleep wherever we want.” Like on the kitchen island? Like you don’t do that already? Giuseppe and Bean settled down here because I was working here, though not with food, except for eating some lunch. I was paying attention to the countertop, so they decided to

Daily Sketch: What Goes On In That Garden of Yours?

And the list when on! Everything was exciting! I even got a swat to hold still until they were done with all their messages! I knew I’d be inspected when I came in from working in the garden for several hours—cutting the lawn, trimming branches, clearing foliage away from my

Daily Sketch: A Sweet Cuddle

Bean and Sunshine couldn’t have been any sweeter cuddling with their faces together and paws entangled on the bed. Sunshine likes to sleep on his back, and Bean is just like a ball with his toes curled. I saw them on the bed and was so concerned I’d waken them,

Daily Sketch: What the Cats Were Doing

I was all alone in my studio. This was not so bad, since kitties like to play with my things, so I worked and worked without the worry of kitties swatting expensive pastels or pens, or walking across my artwork or swatting at my hands as I worked or stealing
