Design a Cat

For some reason I am struggling to find free time at the moment, so have been making mainly ATCs. (I have three different altered art projects on the go but can't seem to find the time to sit down and get them finished). I have decided to do a few more international swaps, and these are some ATCs I've created for a swap on ATCs for All. The idea of the swap is that everyone uses the same line drawing of a cat and then decorates it in their own way. I enjoyed doing these as it gave me the opportunity to do something bright and funky! The top one is done using mostly acrylic paints and I've used pens just to outline the cat and draw in the features. (I couldn't find a really fine paintbrush anywhere!)

The second one has an inked and stamped background and the cat is painted using acrylics. Again I've used pens just to outline the cat and add the features.










The third one is an inked and stamped background with Radiant Rain spray. The cat is made up of bits of paper patched togehter and I've drawn on the stitching using gel pens.










The final one was done using scrunched paper for the background, acrylic paints, and extra heavy gel medium on the cat. I've added the markings and features to the cat using and artists' pen, and the whiskers using a white gel pen
