Bearcat moping


We "cat-sat" for our son, Jeff, during a recent trip he took with his college class. His cat, Mist, does not like other cats and never allowed our Bearcat to get close to her. That did not stopped Bear from hoping that he would eventually befriend her. He's a very friendly cat by nature.

When Jeff took Mist home, Bear moped in the loft for a day or two, making sure we could see him peeking over the loft edge. Didn't want to waste a good "pout", like it was all our fault for letting her get away.

Sketched with a mixed dark sepia ink (Noodler's polar black and polar brown inks) and white pencil on Mi-teintes toned paper in a hand-bound journal.

  1. I always use the Ipad to take pictures, just for the convenience. Your coffee klatsch sounds enjoyable.

    1. The iPad is certainly easy, isn't it? The only reason I use the camera is that photos posted to Blogger with my camera can be clicked on to enlarge. Photos taken with Apple devices can not. Some of my blog readers wish to enlarge my journal pages in order to read the text.
      But then, viewing on an iPad rather than a computer screen allows us to just stretch the image to enlarge it. I love my iPad!

  2. Bearcat is too funny. Love how you rendered the logs in your cabin.

    1. If a cat could even be known as a "drama queen", surely it would be this silly Bearcat! So much personality in a blue tabby coat.
