Living in a World of Fossils and Giant Cats 29Faces and IA


For the 29 Faces Challenge I've been practicing with watercolors and drawing the cartoon cat.  There are two of him on this page from an old book.  He reminds me of those old 1920's and 30's comics and animations.  I think this fella needs a name.

I like him looking up at the big cat, maybe this is a dream; or he's living in a world of GIANT cats...













Now, my scanner is acting crazy, I worked on scanning this aceo to get it right, but to no avail.  This is an acrylic for the Inspiration Avenue theme of, "Here Comes the Sun."

It's somewhat abstract with the sun, sky, sea, and land.  The sun is rising over a fossil.  I think I'm personally feeling fossilized with the winter weather and the bright spot of sun feels like a new earth is being born.

Love the little cartoon cats! Nice artwork. We all could use a little sunshine in February. Spring can't come soon enough!

I have always set up all my blogs in Google reader and so glad I did that, it was a double step for me but now I am glad!

Anyway, love the artwork and since I love sunshine I am favoring the sun!!
