This took awhile. I have wanted to draw her for my friend for a few years but she likes to hide and run outside whenever I had my camera with me for ref photos. I finally caught a few of her outside with my iPod touch. Not the best camera but the best camera is the one you have with you.

It's all about those eyes, am I right? I bet your friend loved this! I also love the way it's cropped; maybe it was intentional, maybe you wish you got the whole cat, but it has a kind of Degas feel in its composition.
:) thanks you Wig! I took a number of crappy iPod photos while we were outside with the cat running away and hiding and this was the one that I could get the face details from easiest. I cropped it so it sort of cuts the page in ½ and to make the eyes more in the centre of the page. I will probably make a print and give it to him for Christmas this year.
