The Artist and His Cat by Weezilou

The Artist and His Cat

I love the way Ashton is currently drawing cats, so I asked him to draw me several and write his signature for me as well. Outside, I asked him to stand with his hands on the table, considering how I would work the two together. The technique is different from what I first envisioned, but I promised Ashton I'd show him with his drawing before the night was over.

He's asleep by now, but "Promise Kept" and his mom can show him in the morning.

Thank you all for the enthusiasm and kind words you've shown my grandsons this weekend. Wasn't it fun to take a break from the squirrel?!
Love it and I am sure Ashton will too! I really like this technique and must try it out with Finlay. I have enjoyed sharing in your happiness with your little visitors this weekend! Fav!

@pamknowler Oh thank you thank you! You might well imagine how good it was for us to spend time with both the kids and Ashley as well! We hadn't seen them since before my surgery. We're going to their place in two weeks...

Wonderful processing, and it sounds like you planned it out quite well! This inspires me to try more sketches as soon as I take some more pics that would convert well.
