This is another request! The owner of Flynn the cat, from TwoDevonCats asked me to draw Flynn’s signature pose.. which apparently is this very garfield-like pose. Very nice. I somehow can relate to this cat.
Here’s the blog post with the photo of Flynn the very relaxed cat
Due to the perspective, the head gets so much smaller than the rest of the cat, and since I draw in a rather small sketchbook (10x14cm or 4×6″) it’s hard to get the face detailed enough. I don’t think that this cat is recognizable from the face. He also ended up a little grumpy.. But maybe the unusual pose does it? π
I tried adding a little india ink with a brush to the darker parts. It’s a little hard to control how dark the ink goes.. Especially because the ballpoint pen i used is not completely water-resistant, so it dissolves a little and makes the whole thing darker. This is all about experimenting and getting better at drawing.
I’m happy to say that I’ve got no less than 6 requests yesterday! The roos from yesterday and now Flynn makes it 4 on my to-do list, so I’ve got something to draw for the weekend. That being said, I’m still very interested in reviving requests!
That was my 437th drawing since the 9th September 2014
Flynn certainly looks very chilled out π and I love his ‘do you have a problem ‘ look π another fab rendition π
thanks ;D
Welcome π
Nice job on our super good buddy Flynn……he and Sammy look very much alike and are, in fact, going through similar “medical issues” at their older age – they both make great drawing subjects for you Thomas. I know Flynn’s “Mom” will treasure her drawing of her boy just as I will do with Sammy’s.

Thanks π I hope she will! And I hope that old age isn’t to hard on these guys – but it looks like they’re both taking it easy π
Love this one!!! Nice job! And love cats in this pose, it says more than thousand words. π
Thanks π Yeah, doesn’t it? π
Flynn’s drawing is fabulous!!

Thanks a ton ;).. And do let me know if you have a request too π
Thank you, I love it! That pose is so typical of Flynn. He has sat like that since he was a kitten. If he’s not sitting like that, he is lying on his back with his feet in the air.You have captured his character. I am going to put it in my Sunday post. Thanks again!
Great π I’m glad you like it!

Flynn is a very specially loved blogosphere cat. You captured him wonderfully. I would love to have Savannah and even The Kid Sage captured in a drawing if you still take requests. Thank You, Mom Linda
Hi! I’d love to! – But my request list is really long – it might be well over a week before i get to do the sketch. Do you have any preferred photos that you’d like me to use? π And thanks a ton for the comment !
Flynn looks just exactly like itself! Another fabulous picture!
Thanks π
