Illustration Friday: Theory

This is where the moon goes after a long night of traversing the heavens. Also, the moon is a cat. That's my theory, and one day Science will prove me right.

Hello! said...

Your Moon is beautiful, not only for the glowing feeling and muted colors, but also becouse it looks like a cat... And that's a combination of two of my favourite things!

Great blog and illustrations, I'll be visiting often! :D
