Space Cats & Other Oddities

Here's another page from my current obsession, Curious Creatures by Creative Haven. I like all of the odd little creatures, but my favorites are the two kitties in the spaceships/flying saucers!  Prismas, Copics, and W&N ProMarkers...as usual.  Have another page already finished and just started a new one...obsession!    Sorry I had to take the photo indoors so it's not as bright and vivid as it looks in person.   :marker:

It looks really great and all the colors are so bright and friendly, yet very alien at the same time.  I really love what you did with this!

I second violynn. I love your use of colors, especially how you tend to use a lot of the same blue and red combination but everything looks so unique.
Also if it was any brighter I might have turned blind :)

Oh, this is really great!  I love the whimsy the artist brings to his/her work. Other than the delightful kitties, I can't identify any creatures, and yet, I believe they must exist somewhere!!  You're colours and colouring are, as always, perfection. I love everything about it!

Thanks so much!  I love the whimsical oddness of the artist's little creatures. Amy Weber is that artist. Her designs are so much fun to color!  Love the two larger "blob" creatures with horns near the bottom...the 3 armed eye is holding onto one of them.  Fun!   :marker:

Out of curiosity - how do you store/display them all?

Thanks so much!  I do like bright vivid colors, so better have your sunglasses ready!  :my_biggrin:

Beautiful as always @Tikobaby! I especially like the little mice in their mini flying saucers.

Thank you!  I love the little mice and their tiny "mouse-saucers" also!  :my_shy:

Thanks so much for your encouraging words!  I don't think it would be beyond your talents as long as you have a lot of bright colors in your marker set!  :my_shy:    :marker:

The  pages I color?  They're piled up on top of some books in the bookshelf by our bed.

Sorry, don't know why this quoted twice.   :my_huh:

I'm so out of adjectives at this point.  Great!  Beautiful!  Fun! Vivid!  I think my favorites are the little tentacley guys.

Thank you!  I'm glad you like it.  :my_shy:    I'm not sure if those creatures are eyeballs with tentacles, pool balls with eyes and tentacles, or what...but they are fun to color!  :my_biggrin:

      OK, FJ folks, I will check it out when the livestream is done. I need to clean the house, but that's OK - taking sit-down breaks to listen to Gary's ramblings in small increments will work out just fine.

      I waited until my boys were around 3.5 to potty train. I know a lot of people thought it was late. My oldest son did fine and was potty trained very quickly. My younger son is a bit different. He’s not diagnosed with anything. But he’s a very spirited and stubborn child to his core. Which mean potty training took years. Yes years.

      And still not toilet trained!?! -- That's.... umm... not sure what it is ......, but... umm ...... wow ...... that's ... something.

      There's a picture that floats around of Lauren Swanson and Kendra Caldwell on a mission trip together with their families and some of the Duggars when the girls were around 12.

      Probably this one.

      That is a shocking amount of Reddit in-jokes for an actual published book!
