Artist's Comments

I took a quick break from pictures I've been working on to put this together in Photoshop. It was for an Illustration Friday topic, which at the time was "superstition". I knew there were probably going to be a ton of black cats with this topic, but I really didn't care. I just wanted to make something fun and try my hand at a more simplified, retro inspired style.

Plus, I simply like the idea of someone who really believes in luck owning a black cat.

Photoshop, November of 2007.

Prints of this are now available!

I love it. I'm sure there are going to be many black cat pictures, but how many are going to be retro inspired? I love how it's retro inspired. It gives it an old superstition feeling.

Thank you! I've always had a thing for retro inspired illustrations. I actually got the idea to try something like this after looking through some of the concept art that Pixar did for Ratatouille.

Oh, it's so cute! It looks like your style would lend itself really well to some high-quality children's books! Have you ever thought of getting together with a writer, or writing a story yourself?

I loved that movie, Ratatouille. And you're welcome.

I love the texture, makes it feel like it was cut out of old paper....The cat is adorable of course ^w^
