IlloFriday: Cats

So here is my first submission for Illustration Friday. The topic is of course cats. Wasn't quite sure what to do with this one at first, but after some serious reflection, I ended up with this little sketch. I felt inspired by two of my former guilty pleasures growing up as a child, Garfield and Miami Vice. When I was a kid, I used to stay up late at night reading Garfield books under the covers with a flashlight, and as a child of the 80s, I certainly used to watch Miami Vice religiously, under the influence of mom...just kidding...but seriously, watched it every week. Suddenly I have the urge to don my white loafers.

Awesome! I love it...it turned out well. I was actually thinking about it today on my way home from the gym and I couldnt help but laugh again. Man, now I definitely have to make sure I post one. The pressure is on. =)

This reminds me of a "Miami Mice" T-shirt I had in high school. Ah, those were the days... and, yes, I admit I had a few pastels in my wardrobe as well; not proud of that, but there it is. :-)

Well done.

Thanks for the comments. I was kind of nervous about posting any kind of work because of all the great work I've been seeing on the IlloFriday site.
