I've never really been one to do art on paper. I prefer to use a digital medium so I can correct mistakes as I go. However, yesterday at work we were doing an art activity with my residents, and I decided to put charcoal to paper and give it a try. The next thing I knew I had a sketch of my cat Angel. I ended up erasing some parts I didn't like, but seeing as I hadn't not done a "real" drawing in over 20 years, I'm very happy with the result, and I just might give it another try soon.

First I'd like to say, I like seeing this. It's simple and lovely in style. It has some thing of a retro feel to it that looks to me like it could have come from a cartoonist working in the 40's - 60's. For some reason the New Yorker rings to mind. I say continue exploring this style to see how far you can take it. I can't picture color actually adding to it's look. Monotone seems to do it just fine. Also I'd like to comment on one aspect that makes it a good interesting sight. I've never seen a cat cartooned this way before.
