My latest drawing:

The title is a reference to the black cat hidden in the scene. (Same cat as in my user icon). He has nothing to do with either the scene, or the story it illustrates - but it's still fun to hide him. An old gimmick with the story prologue was that finding him and clicking him would bring up a "Secret Life of Milton" cartoon. The Milton in this scene doesn't link to anything.

Big fan of anthropomorphic landscapes Merrak; not sure I see your cat but think I do (the mountain; cat is curled and sleeping if what I am seeing is correct). Thanks for sharing. :)

Didn't click on the image before Graechan and do see the cat in the tree now, but even the mountainside, I see the profile of a cat. I see it's paw covering it's nose with eye closed. My cat does this quite often. lol

Maybe I see things others don't because possibly I'm crazy. Just saying there's a possibility but I don't believe it. lol

My cat was sleeping in my lap when I sketched the mountain. Exactly what that means I'll leave as a point to ponder ;)

Here's another one. As you were looking at the drawing, the drawing was looking at you.

I see the face with the nose! It doesn't look like it's snoring to me. That effect certainly wasn't intended.
