Lion Window #73

These are the first two of a window that I saw in Charleston.  Cathy's cat is in the window above.  The door is inspired by a Czech door.  Still working on it after I left Naples, FL, hence the boats.  

DOOR #22 Shhhhhhh

Kitty Chess Meister

This is the final version of Kitty Chess Meister.  Thanks to Les to help me decide on the tag and the choice of the watch on Kitty's wrist.  Only a Patek would do on such a Kitty's wrist competing in a Chess Championship.   

I would have never thought about Meerkats if it hadn't been for Heli Montgomery.

Four Meerkats Waiting on a Lift, #2

This is the 2nd version of these Meerkats.  I added colored ink, which brings out the form more.

FOUR MEERKATS WAITING FOR A LIFT: INFINITE PATIENCE

This is the beginning of 4 Meerkats Waiting For a Lift: Infinite Patience.  I drew the first of this series in 1999 with a snail waiting for an elevator.  I put the drawing away and retrieved it last year.  It's been the basis of several drawings since then. This is the first using multiple mammals.  The Meerkat image came from my long time friend, Miss Heli Montgomery, from Athens, Georgia.  I'd done a previous Meerkat for her, and since they're such poignant creataures, I decided to incorporate then into an INFINITE SERIES piece.  Thank you Heli for inspiring with the wonderful MEERKAT:)
 

Bridge with Rowhouses

This is the (almost) final version.
