This week’s art journal entry - on the key word of aloft, with a challenge to incorporate some wings into the thing - is a digital for me. I started off mucking around with my cat, Frank’s photograph and then realised that I might as well do it all in digital, given then I was either going to cut the cat out in real life, or better still - with an erasor and magic wand tool.

The opposite side is a simple background in the same green with the text : -

I sometimes wonder -

if a cat has wings,

does this still make him a cat?

And would he still

spend his time

chasing birds?

This is dedicated to my old cat, Frank - who we rescued from a cat home four years ago. Frank has now entered her retirement years well and truly - and we may not have her much longer. But she brings much comfort to me, especially when I see a bit of wind up her tail when she chases trailing sticks. If Frank were to have wings, she would spend her time just flying and appreciating her time off earth.
