Stray Cat Strut Studio Work 2005

The beginning of a commissioned project to benefit the Dearborn Animal Shelter. The "Stray Cats" will be on parade on Memorial day and at the sponsoring business. Then the cats will be auctioned off. The original sketch was an idea, but the cat "told" me to digress and make her into an ancient goddess before adding the additions to create her as a "caterinarian".
