Illustration Friday-100%

I really don't have an explanation for this other than that I had a need to draw some fur balls. And I don't even have any cats. What a great topic this week though, I can think of tons of things to draw. This is just one of them.

You make hairballs so appealing! Trust me, they're not. Especially when you find them with your bare feet! Wonderful and original CG!

Happy New Year Chickengirl! This is a great piece! I just love it!

Meng said...

Actually, I hear they are only about 90% furballs and about 10% mice tails and anchovy crackers. Still, great illustration. Happy New Year, Chickengirl, it's been a while since I've been to your site and it's still awesome.

The look fat-free. Are they fat-free? Cuz I could use a couple of those right now.

Yours is an especially creative answer to "100%". Lively, fun, and well done. So there.

Oh! An excellent way to add scribbles to the piece. I love the flowing lines against the hard edges.

LOL!! Awesome.

I have now idea what I would do with a bag of Leo's fur balls, and although my cats offer them up to me for free (mostly under the bed) I feel that I need to purchase a bag or two of Leo's fur balls right now.
