He is beauty, he is grace; his lil tongue stick out his face :P
This is Dumpster Cat. We found him on the streets of NYS by a fast food chain dumpster. Scooped him up and brought him home a while's away. He sat in our partner's lap the whole way :3
This first interaction purrfectly foreshadowed the cuddly personality he's now notorious for, with anybody that's met him.
I don't understand how people think cats don't have personalities, or that they deserve to be outside-only. This lil fella was patchy with mange, beyond skinny with malnourishment and infested with parasites. No one deserves that. He wasn't going to survive the winter for that matter.
Don't worry, we checked: no microchip. He's SO happy now. And thriving! Back to normal weight and coat, with a full bill of health. We're overjoyed to have him as part of our ragtag family. ♡♡♡
i vote that next year instead of reading Dracula we do a Jeeves & Wooster Book Club. those two never got the rabid tumblr shipping fandom they deserved (disqualified for the sheer technicality of being published a century too soon). we must correct this injustice
This illustration is called Jail Break and as you can see it starts with a mess of lines, plotting a map of the character, setting the mood, blocking in color, then adding shadows/highlights/detailing.
Each step takes patience and sometimes the ability to see into the near future (as in this will work! I can envision it! Oo! I’ll add this too!)
Most importantly, it takes the joy of creation and the forgiveness to your ego. (Don’t beat your artist self up, more likely than not, it won’t turn out EXACTLY as you pictured it!)
