Ok so I’m on vacation… I was sitting out on the screened-in porch of my in-laws house yesterday watching their cats watch the birds at the feeders. After I drew this, I realized it was perfect for this weeks topic. I aim to finish it all up when I get home. In the meantime, this is a shapshot of my sketchbook that I took with my cellphone! Ok yeah, I’m a geek.

Functional Art
I’m not sure this counts for Inspire-Me-Thursday because I was going to do it anyway. I’ve been gardening.
Basically I collected some twigs and branches and tied them together to make little pyramids to stake the tomatos and little ladder-triangles for the herbs in the bucket. I bound the sticks together with a hemp-twine. I’m going to have to redo my tomato stakes when the tomatos get get taller. I’m HOPING they’ll get taller. We don’t get a lot of direct sunlight. Oh yes, the cat’s name is Charlemagne.
On another note, pardon my web-dust. I’m redesigning blog and website currently.
Speed
Topic was “speed” so I tried to do it up really fast, too. Total: 4.5 hours. I’m getting better. Bill’s fascinated with what he calls my “zen archery” approach to illustration.
