SMALL CAT

Its Karen here and I have been working with the small cat.  Awe its really cute with a lovely curly tail!
I have been sat on this one for a while (not literally haha) trying to decide what to do with him...yes, I decided it was a him haha!  I have incorporated him into the cover of a book.  The book was from my own stash and I have stuck bits all over it before painting to give it lots of texture.  The cat was then painted in black acrylic and I painted glossy accents over as I didn't want him too smooth.  Its been tied together with a fairly wide satin ribbon.

I really like how this cat stands out.  This book is just for me for a change haha.

Thank you for looking and do look again tomorrow as there is a COMPETITION coming up!!!  HUGS XXX

Love the texture here Karen and the cat looks great - are you going to make it into a "Book of Cats" like Old Possum?
