Sun came streaming in the back door this morning creating brilliant white highlights on very densely black cats. Mimi, Giuseppe and Mewsette looked like interlocking puzzle pieces.

Just keep looking, it will come together.

So Giuseppe rests all the time, why draw him now? Just because he looked so velvety black there on my desk, completely covering up something I needed to work on. You can see a few extra lines I’d erased at the bottom; he had started out with one paw curled under and his head up. I no sooner had that roughly outlined than he laid his head on his paw.
