Puss in Boots

Here's a detail of an illustration showing my version of Puss in Boots. This enterprising young cat is modestly winning over the King by presenting him with a rabbit.

And here he is being roared at by the ogre, after he has dared the ogre to prove he can turn himself into a lion... just before he dares him to prove he can turn into a mouse! You can tell he's still the ogre from his telltale bushy red hair.

Puddy Tat


I like cats but for some reason, I don't seem to paint them very often! I have just finished a birthday card design that does have one, so here is a detail:

Tiger-Cat



I just realized I'm working on a piece now with a 'cat' in it!

Meow - Burp!

This is loosly based on my cat. Only Kiki prefers chicken to fish and she has trouble using chopsticks.

Purr....



This is an old piece from last year. I'm not a cat person, so I usually don't include them in my work since I'm not confident in drawing them. I'm much better at dogs!

The happy spring cat



A few weeks ago we had a dog invasion here on our blog. I think it's time to bring in the cats!

Puzzle


Where is the last piece of the puzzle? Maybe the cat ate it? The picture on the puzzle pieces is actually an older illustration that I made for Illustration Friday. I used photoshop to make it a part of this illustration.

Hide


This is for the Illustration Friday topic "hide". It was great to finally have time to make a "real" illustration this week. I've been so busy with my writing lately. This is made with acrylics, and it took me about 5,5 hours to paint it.
