Just before the end of a passing year, I endeavour to keep to a tradition of making a drawing before the year goes out . Sometimes, it is not possible, but this time it was, and it is probably because most of us are at home having a quiet time in, not venturing out for parties so much, due to the new Omicron Virus. So before I entered into 2022, I drew this A3 sized work as something amusing to bide the time away. I do like a few easier works before I set out on a major work again. The inspiration for this was that recently, a fellow artist told me that ‘ You do love your cats’ due to me having quite a few drawings and some paintings of them. So I had a giggle, and called the bluff, and did this particular drawing of which another was added in 2022 titled ‘ I Love Meow’ in the January 2022.
This original is an A3 size on 220 GSM Acid Free Card. Drawn Comic style in ink outlining, and Derwent coloured pencils which gives it a ‘young feel’ about it. The texture in the work is made obvious for this reason. I guess it could go well, enlarged for a children’s room, or just a fun animal lovers abode.
It is colourful and some of the individual cat drawings are quite funny: ie. The drooling kitty, the anime kitty, the toothy kitty, and so on.

This is a conceptual work. It is about bringing incongruent styles together to form balance and harmony. Often we think that certain aspects may not fit or may not complement the other. Certain things certainly can but often it’s up to the artist to think outside the box…Often, this is where one can find these in. This is where we can make new art, new fashion. New styles, and even break rules. Ultimately, in the end, it is the vote of the many that will take a new ideal under its wing. This of course is whether it can serve the need of many, or otherwise, wait until time changes it.
