“The Yearning for Adventure”
giclée art print 

Hark! What was that?!
Our feline friend has heard mysterious noises emanating from out in the garden. Were the sounds an ‘it’ or a ‘them’? She thinks she sees shadowy shapes dart across the lawn and slither through the shrubbery. The poor cat is trapped indoors. All she wants is to leap through that window into a moonlit landscape of wild curiosity filled with unknown and unseen excitements - and perhaps an exploit or two of good old mischief.

“3 AM”
giclée art print 

It’s 3 AM in suburbia and someone is still awake. A silhouetted cat sits on a windowsill behind open blinds peering out at a mysterious nighttime world. This is her favourite post in the house. From here she can look out over the expansive lawn and clipped hedges. Her humans have long since gone to bed. There is streetlight shinning on the house, hedges and lawn. She’s hoping to see something - anything - move about in the shadows. She listens intently for any rustle in the leaves, snap of a twig, or scampering over the grass. For now, all is silent except for the faint rush of a passing car. The night belongs to her. 

I've drawn this in ballpoint pen in a very fine, wispy cross-hatching style trying to achieve that vague, mysterious tonality seen at that hour. I take a lot of walks late at night, and this is a home l've passed several times, complete with the lit window. I always imagine a cat sitting there, and the beauty is that I can make it so. 

This is a companion piece of sorts with “The Yearning for Adventure”, also available in my Etsy shop.

“Shniff!”   
giclée art print 

It’s spring going into summer and our orange tabby friend is inhaling the scent of overhanging blooms. He’s shniffing the fragrance in deeply to the tip of his tail! 

He’s standing on a stone wall with front legs perched on the edge of a red folding chair next to a round table with a tea service and a vase of flowers set upon it. The setting is a small, cosy backyard with the kitchen window swung wide open in the background. 

This piece is rendered loosely in pen & ink with watercolour wash.

“A Singular Sense of Style”
giclée art print 

What we have here is an extremely posh, well-attired Grackle-About-Town sauntering nonchalantly along top a stone wall, past a much surprised, amazed and bewildered black alley cat. The cat doesn’t have the foggiest notion what to make of this situation. The hand-lettered text below sums up the cat's predicament. This humorous drawing is rendered in dip pen & ink using a crosshatching technique.

“The Usual Suspects” 
giclée art print 

Here we have four mysterious, furtive and highly suspicious-looking black cats with glowing eyes, sitting together on a park bench, late at night, under the light from a lamppost. Are they plotting something nefarious - or just mischievous? Or, has the deed already been done? Or are they just four good friends gathered together to enjoy each other's company, who happen to look guilty?

The title is "Mise en Scène pour la Nuit". The stage has been set for the night's events. The characters involved have assembled. (Yes, I consider the crescent moon, park bench, topiary hedge, and the lamp post all as players in my
'production'.) What might transpire tonight in this hidden, lonely corner of the old park?
Are they waiting for another, as yet unseen participant to join them? You might think it unfair, but I'm leaving it up to your imagination to create the scenario and whatever story may follow. My drawings are collaborations between myself and the viewer. It takes your mind to complete them.

“Stopping By for a Rest and a Visit”
giclée art print 

The crescent moon takes a break from its celestial journeys to rest in the arms of an accommodating tree. Whilst taking a rest it visits with a favourite earthling: a cat. The cat sits at the base of the tree in a pool of moonlight and stares up at his friend.

“The Wanderer of Night Land” 
giclée art print 

I’ve made countless nighttime sojourns through landscapes of all kinds: through woods, along lakesides, neighborhoods and parklands in search of the effects of moonlight and lamplight on my surroundings. Along the way I’ve encountered many a lone cat exploring its own nocturnal world. I think this cat is perhaps a self portrait - me, investigating the magical night world I love.

“Encounter in the Old Park” 
giclée art print 

Two cats have unexpectedly come across each other in an old English park quite late at night. They're startled to say the least. Do they know each other? Will the one play it safe and keep walking? Is territory involved? Will they become good pals? 
Much to ponder here. Within all the atmospheric lamplight, It's clearly a very old park in late November or winter - all bare trees, dried leaves and shriveled vines.

The original drawing was rendered in black ballpoint pen.

“The Tentative Approach”

In the foreground a black cat in profile creeps tentatively along an ivy-covered wall and approaches a blackbird perched on the edge of an opposing wall. They both face each other across the divide.  Is the cat hunting or simply curious about the feathered creature? The bird is unafraid and stands its ground. What will happen next? 

An enchanting and atmospheric night scene lit by a crescent moon which is framed by flowing leaves. 
A topiary hedge and a tree are in the background. Rendered in charcoal with white chalk highlights.
