Drawing in Bordeaux (with my cat)

[Grapes]

Old drawing I did in Bordeaux, France. This drawing and photos bring back good memories.
I also did a pleinair of this statue called Monument aux Girondins but the pleinair turned out even worst .

Cool, I think the horse sketch turned out really well.

Txomsy, thanks!

That's a difficult drawing that I also think you captured really well Grapes. Oh and I adore your cat.. she's so beautiful.

 

[Grapes]

Jade, thank you so much!
Didn't she find a perfect place to sit while I was drawing. She stayed there until I was done. I was surprised There was water dropping right next to her and I thought she wouldn't tolerate that. But she was calm, no problem at all. No drops of water were falling over her tho.

Cats are a constant surprise! What a good girl

Nice sketch. I'm not a cat man but they are pretty to look at.

You did a good sketch , Grapes, of a difficult subject. All those curves and shadows! Your cat is as beautiful as ever. I tried putting a harness like that on my old cat and he refused to move in it. He flattened himself like a pancake and pouted.

A very mice drawing with a difficult subject. Love kitty!

Drawing reminds me of parts of Anghiari. That looks like one cool cat. I often see a lady in the village where I live walking with a cat on a leash, I like seeing it.

Wayne, thanks so much!

Donna, thanks. Some cats just won't take it. When mine has hers on, she starts running like a space shuttle - meaning that in a second she forgets it's on. I'm glad it's that way so we can take her out for walks almost daily and she likes her time outdoors so much.

Joy, thanks! Kitty "meows" for thanks.

Thanks, Mayben, more and more nowadays ppl take their cats for a walk instead letting them run free. I googled Anghiari and the map directs me in-between Florence and Perugia. Those lands are perfect for pleinair - pleinair painter's dream!
