239. Kitty on Pavement

Pilot G-Tec C4 pen in hand-stitched sketchbook

I shared the County Durham sketch with three of my artist friends and commented that the cars were all over the pavement. I noticed that they were commenting that they couldn't see the "cats" and realised I'd made a 'typo'. I felt I owed them a quick cat sketch after that!

We made a trip up to County Durham and back in a day to see the godchildren (nine hours total driving) but it was well worth it for the memories.
