You have been very busy since we have been gone...I absolutely love the 2 kitties on the front of the back!

I used to work for a vet: a cat needs whiskers *g*.

Kerry said...

Yes, but from the yellow spot

Oma said...

Okay ... now to find a thin enough utensil ... I don't trust the black paint pen and the black markers are too thick. Maybe practise with the finest brush I have and use thick black paint??

Use masking tape and peel off when finished...or just go at it with a thin brush (from the yellow). It's folk art, it doesn't have to be precise.

Also, the lines should be almost as thick as the outline of the face or the whiskers will look too "realistic". This is a cartoon cat.

Kerry said...

yup I agree with Barbara, the thread is way too thin, think sock yarn or even sport weight yarn.

I can't tell you how glad I am that you are all here! Thank you.
