I love the almost woodblock print quality of this image and the cat is adorable.

Love the little stranded cat and how you showed night time...it does feel like a woodblock. :)

Lovely simple linework. The cat looks sweet at the top of the lighthouse. Thanks for your comment on my blog :)

Ah, linework, I really love how it looks. As the others mentioned, this piece does have a woodblock quality to it, it's very charming, Bee.
I know what you mean about a "hint of a background.' It is something I like, leaving things simple and keeping a lot of white of the paper. i've always loved works that show the pencil marks or that are only partially colored, they feel and look "finished" to me.

Mmmm, something old-worldly and magical about lighthouses, no? Love 'em. This is really, really adorable!

Is the cat watching for boats, or scoping out the "catch of the day!"
