About this work

This drawing shows a cat with a human face, dressed like a person. It’s wearing a long white coat, a black tie, and dark pants with a long tail sticking out. The cat’s paws are tucked into its coat pockets, and it has a small badge pinned to its lapel. The artist used simple colored pencils to mix soft grays and browns, keeping the lines clean but loose. The cat’s face looks calm, almost like it’s posing for a portrait. If you like this mix of animals and people, check out Lucy McKenzie.
