Daily Sketch Reprise: Four Cats at the Window

They were coming and going and shuffling around at the window today, and so was I at my desk. The sun was bright and their silhouettes clear, so I marked a moment I liked, then drew this in stages as I appeared at my desk and the cats appeared in their places, first Mewsette and Bean in the center, then Mimi way over on the right, and Mr. Sunshine, who never quite settled on the sill but stood on the table with his paws on the sill, on the left. I might put vertical bars on either end to hold them in, but I think you get the idea.

It’s tax day and deadlines for several things, so we just have a rerun tonight, but it’s one I like in composition and style, and have used as an illustration.

  • As soon as Four Cats at the Window downloaded, I thought of this. It is such an unforgettable set design. Just substitute cats for the jailbirds. (If you’re an impatient sort, skip to the 25 second mark!)

        • Meg–don’t–it’s actually there! I sometimes reply to my comments in my “dashboard”, and links don’t always show up there. It’s here on the post. Too funny!
