hungry cats

It’s 3 a.m.! Have you fed your cats? My cartoon shows how my three cats are not shy about asking for kibble in the wee hours of the morning.

I got an iPad, on release day, eager to try it as a new way of creating art. There are already several drawing apps to choose from, such as Brushes. I’ve tried Brushes for the iPhone, but this time, I decided to try out Sketchbook Pro. For my first exercise, I do quick sketch of my cat, sleeping. I am quite happy with the intuitive feel of drawing directly on a screen, as opposed to a Bamboo tablet method. This is definitely the way of the future. I only wish the iPad was invented earlier. For another exercise, I would love to use a stylus to achieve an even more accurate stroke.

Ying and Yang

Charles Schultz once said, “Happiness is a warm puppy.” Can I add warm cats to that? Introducing my cats – BooBoo (left) and Mac (right). BooBoo likes to play hide (and seek), especially when a stranger comes over. But he is a soft loving hug when everything’s back to normal. Mac is truly user-friendly. Named aptly because when he was a kitten, he’d sit on my lap and look at the screen whenever I was surfing on my computer. Plus, he is friendly to all, even to new comers.
