Favorite Scratching Areas of Local Cats by Mike Lynch

"Favorite Scratching Areas of Local Cats" is a cartoon by Mike Lynch. Ink and watercolor on 90 lb. Loew Cornell "Rough Surface" watercolor paper.

I was trying out this new watercolor paper. It took to the Micron Pigma pens just fine. But, as you can see, it likes to bleed a bit much -or my brush is too wet.

Above: the original. I altered it to a vertical layout in Photoshop. I also did redraw of the "scruff tugs" cat, Bertie.
