Black-cat-a-day 27 & 28: Miss Havisham's cake

The days grow shorter. The air grows nippier (or as in Los Angeles, slightly less blistering) and I have actually purchased candies from the grocer in anticipation of Halloween. Just a few more black cat days to go, so here's a nod to Dickens' Great Expectations, in which our dear Miss H, jilted at the altar, lives out her days dressed in her tattered wedding gown amid the ruins of her reception feast.

The groom didn't show: Miss Havisham's cake. Yummy.

Day 19: Kitties of the Zombie Apocalypse sketches

Color sketches I made while working out the Post-Apocalyptic Toile fabric for Spoonflower. Zombie cats threaten the food stores!

Kitties of the zombie apocalypse

For various reasons, I've fallen a few days behind on my black cats, but since I am working on a cat fabric, I'm going to bend my own rules a bit, whatever they are and count this toward a couple of days. Though they're technically dark blue, they're black cats in spirit. This is a pattern I'm working on for this week's weird Spoonflower challenge on the theme of "Post-apocalyptic toile". UPDATE: Nah. I think I can catch up.

Procession, Part 1

It was a dark and stormy night... and yes, there's a black cat in this one, in case you doubt.

Nice day for a walk

I haven't forgotten that the whole point of this challenge was to celebrate Halloween. So... why shouldn't a cat have a pet bat to promenade around the neighborhood on a crisp autumn day?

Black cat a day

It might be fun for October to paint a black cat every day. Here's day one. We'll see... I'm already one behind!
