Mark making and drawing

The second last assignment for the year for the Studio and Materials class at VCA was to create a work based on.....'KITTENS'

Given my popensity to use fake fur in any assignment I can squeeze it into, I decided to not go down the obvious route. Instead  made a series of drawings that represent one of the major activities of kittens - mark making and scrtatching.

They are on rag papaer, and I used various scratching implements, as well as some india ink, pens and gesso.

I did ask the resident experts, Eartha Kitt and Mis Sylvie if they could help, but their response was a scornful stare and complete amnesia about their kittenhood.
