My Illustration Friday attempt for save.
It was around this time last year we started our search to find ourselves a kitty-cat. It was a long and painful search, but it ended very well with the introduction of Tilli into our family. When we told people she was a stray and we got her from an animal shelter (which is a nice word for "pound" these days), they said "oh, so you saved her life". I never thought oh it like that. I couldn't... because of all the other cats we left behind... (I wanted to believe that they'd all find loving new homes). But you know it's probably true.
I want to believe we can save her from everything.
It's a been months since my last IF, and this one is quick and sketchy... with Del Kathryn Barton inspired contour lines.

This reminds me of the illustrations on the Decemberists web site. Very lovely lines. I enjoy the sketchiness of the piece and the shape of the cat is great.
Good job. Your whole blog is very crisp, like linen on a clothes line.
