I tossed my apron on my work table, so of course it became a cat bed. Mimi settled down in her usual perfectly symmetrical manner, then began sagging here and there until she was fully on her side. I began to sketch her in mid-sag, when she still had one

Back to good old drawing pencil, my first and favorite medium. Not that they’d all keep still while I sketched them, instead I wanted to catch their energy, not sure how many or how detailed I’d get I let the sketch build itself and drew them one by one as

Mimi enjoys her daily sunbath while Mewsette watches the birds from my studio window on the second floor. One more experiment with this brush pen, partly just because it was there. I love it when the cats are partly lit by sunshine, and dramatically. Here it pours in the window

I really wanted to catch Giuseppe bathing but he stopped to look at me. I love sketching baths, each one is different and you see so many unusual postures. Typically, cats can’t be distracted from this all-important activity, especially after a meal, but Giuseppe believes that when he is getting

Some days I am working on art projects and it’s actually difficult to change my focus and do a sketch, like today. On these days I’m glad I have the sketches from last year to post, and it’s always interesting to see what I was doing. These sunny days have

Some days it’s difficult to settle on a sketch subject, and today, another quiet rainy day, they were napping most of the time and I just feel I’ve sketched enough naps. I called playtime and tossed balls and waved feathers, just watching their activities. Watching them play was fun, but
