This weekend I got these two ducks from Hilde. She once was a student at my school and she now is almost finished with at the Tech University of Delft. She found these ducks in a shop and thought, that with a little moderation, this was a nice present for me.
There are some nice thoughts behind these ducks. These Ducks are like twins, and Hilde is half a twin, I paint cats and I'm from the Netherlands (NL). I didn't see the the third clue at once. "It's like all those shirts and hoodies you wear. They often say KIKS TYO, so I made these for you, CATS NL".

A student walked by at the stairs at school. "Hi Sjors, do you want a fortune cookie?" Before I knew it, I was standing on the stairs with a fortune cookie. No idea who this student was. I pretty much like the message inside. Now together with a lucky beckoning fortune cat at the laboratory.

Merry Christmas and a Happy Lucky Cats 2012!

Purple Cheetah

At first I didn't see how this color combination would work, but when I added the last brown lining on the spots, it suddenly came to life. A student told me I should try this combo. She is a drawing artist, so she would know what she was talking about.

Fat Gold and Silver twins


It is actually the second series twins in gold and silver. I pretty much like to work metallic paint recently. These twins are tortoises. They are not shy, they are just lazy. And fat. I think the silver one could use a little diet.
Title is inspired by "Fat Gold Chain" by Schoolly D.

Innocent Cat.

"Are you talking to me? I haven't done anything... Me? no.."
Not sure how he hog on canvas. He looks a little scared. I think he is a big fluffy innocent pinkish red tiger. No evidence at all. Not even a shadow.

Glowin Cats

I made two glowing cats recently. I pretty much like them. I hope I can find the typical lime green/yellow paint again, that I use for the glow. My oldest sister thinks it has to do something with nuclear power plants, but I see them like cats who emit positive energy.

Maya the Cat

I was at a birthday of the daughter of a good friend of me. I also was good friends with his sister for a long time. At the birthday she was wearing a wide jumper in earth colors. There were some orange and yellow stripes on in it. Her children called her "Maya the Bee" (in Dutch Maja de Bij) after the German animated series, because of the stripes. I thought that was very funny. When she heard about my cat paintings and liked them very much, it did not take long to make this cat called Maja. I think she will give it a nice place in her house.
