I worked...taught Noah his school...cleaned the house.....did dishes..laundry....and found myself with some extra time left over. I sat down next to the cat.....and he was sleeping so cute....I decided I had no excuses to not try doing something creative. My goal this week was to sketch something.....not spend a lot of time on it.....but to sketch something. I did this in about 1 hour. I still have to tweak the body and feet....and then add more details to the face/eyes....I can see the finished work in my mind....but I am too tired to finish it tonight as 4:00 a.m. comes too early for me!

Opie looks so cute! The minute I laid eyes on your sketch I went, "AWWW!" That is a successful sketch indeed. :)
Good for you tackling something hard, like a cat. I find their pattern and all that fur terribly distracting, and then it's hard to draw them at all. You managed well - and I hope you'll let us see it again when you've put on the finishing touches.
thanks for the visits and encouraging comments!
That's beautiful work.
thank you! I like the fact that the lighting when I snapped the photo made it look like sepia tones.....but in actuality the sketch is just done with a regular cheap pencil on a cheap sketch pad.
I will finish this.....probably enlarge it and make it a sepia tone and see what that looks like. Opie is a yellow/orange cat anyway.....and it would suit him better
