Daily Sketch Reprise: Watching the Storm, 2013

We had a surprise storm late today, fast and noisy and dark, with lots of rain and wind, and then we had a neighbor’s tree in our yard. More storms came later, not as bad as the first, but bad enough to lose our electricity again. What else for me to do but a good old-fashioned manual sketch on paper? And what better subject than a couple of cats looking out the window at the rains and waving branches.
