"Gesture"
is the prompt this week at Illustration Friday
"Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence. "
~Henri Matisse
I'm sure my little cheeky cheshire friend below would like to make an '..expressive gesture' all of his own.
just a bit of fun this week after last week's serious post.
Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

Well done. I overlooked the cat in her hair. Nice quote of Matisse.

I'd say you captured the soul of Matisse! The colors, patterns and expressions are exquisite!
Heisann!
I also thought of Matisse's style and way to paint women in one of his periods!
Beautiful gesture ;:OD)
this is lovely and serene
even though that kitty might take action in any moment~
beautiful work!
Love that cat, looks like he is smiling with his eyes :)
thanks for your comments, he is a cheeky little guy, not sure why he's a he!?
especially with the roses - must be all that blue!
While in art school I had an assignment to copy a famous painting, so I picked Matisse because I thought it would be easy. Boy was I wrong, he was a brilliant colorist and I didn't even get close.
I like this piece with hidden cat and friendly bird. I wish wild birds would light on my hand like that. I'm commenting here because I know nothing of essential oils :(
Such a lovely mood of calmness and inner harmony! I hear the cat's murmuring, before falling asleep. The perfect hug!:) For me, these are your colours! By the way, I'm changing your cards one by one in the hall - we like to look at them!:-)
Have a nice and successful week, Naomi!
Loving the cat hidden in her hair. Great colours and pose.
Ted - glad to hear I'm not the only one that dreams of wild birds being my friend and has no idea on essential oils lol!
Rossichka - thank you! I love the idea of the cat happily settled, you're absolutely right - my favorite colours :-)
Rabbit town animator - many welcomes !
Haha I am blind but you have taught me to see, the roses are beautiful and the cat is a lovely surprise,!

sorry I have no suggestions on the scent _ I like turps actually :)
Great illustration!! wonderful idea!!
Lovely! I'm glad that you included the close-up, as I didn't see the "hidden" cat at first!
