I have some new artwork ready just in time for the holiday season! Various sizes of prints as well as cards are just waiting for someone to take them home. You have to visit the Artful Abode in Lebanon, TN to see the full selection, but here are a few of the new drawings I have available there. Coffee Cat and Calico Kitty were created all the way on the other side of the world, in Mongolia. These next two are some of my new ink pen drawings. I love this style; I feel like it always turns out looking sharp. Then, I did a throwback to some of my older color art with Mushroom Planet (pictured at the top) and Jacob Sheep. Finally, since it is almost Thanksgiving, my collection wouldn’t be complete without Mr. Turkey. Happy Thanksgiving!

I’ve been so blessed to be able to spend time in Mongolia this summer to visit my sister. It’s hard to believe it’s already been two weeks since I got here! Other than meeting new people and spending time with my sister, one of my favorite things to do has been to try out new coffee shops in Ulaanbaatar. You never know what you will find there—one of them even had a tank with a small crocodile-looking animal in it! This morning, I decided to go to Caffe Bene. Of course, I had to take a sketchbook and work on a little art while I was there. (There weren’t a lot of customers yet so I wasn’t worried about taking up a table for too long.) And of course I thought, “What better animal to draw than a cat?” So, here is my calico kitty, first as a work in progress and then complete with color. Oh, and since we’re on the theme of cats and coffee, I guess I’d better share Coffee Cat as well… 🙂
