THE CAT'S MEOW

This is an illustration i did last year for the Enmore Design Centre's "Cat's Meow, Dog's Dinner" student show at TAP Gallery. After spending months experimenting with acrylics and watercolour, gouache, pencils etc. and making countless dog and cat pictures, i did this over the holidays and it turned out to be one of my favourite works of the year. Not to say i wasn't happy with the experiments, it was just nice to get back some good ol' cartoony comic stuff.

There's a cat that turns up at the door of the apartment block across the street from ours, pretty much around 7:30pm every day without fail, and meows until it's let inside. Whenever i hear it i go and have a peek, and that's where the inspiration for this came from. Unfortunately Superman does not live in that same building. As far as i know.
I also got these printed up on tees to sell at the show, and they sold really well! I have a couple up for sale on my etsy store, as well as some other stuff so have a look if you're interested.
