Kat Johnston - Nothing makes a girl happy like a rat infestation and a top-hat.

A second picture post for today, to celebrate the fact that I just checked, and www.katjohnston.com comes first for a search for (you guessed it) the search term ‘Kat Johnston’! Considering that the page has only been live for a grand total of 4 days, I think that is pretty good. In proper celebratory style, I enjoyed a small bowl of peppermint choc-chip ice-cream. It was most delicious.

Jenny is making a reappearance, this time with her bevy of rattus rattus to keep her company. She’s much more cheerful this time, as you may note. The girl has a fierce temper, but she does seem to love it when things go right too.

Some Progress.

\'Rat Painting in Progress\' by Kat Johnston

Not a huge amount of progress, but some: and the first chance for anyone out there in internet world to see a slightly larger view of the painting I am working on. Aren’t you lucky?

Ok, I’m not actually sure which direction I am going with in this work…. I think it is going to be one of those ‘progress as it is painted’ type things… I don’t generally like to show things in progress like this, as opposed to just showing a final work… but I suppose it is time to try to get out of that habit and perhaps throw out some of the interrim steps, in the name of… I don’t know… something different? *laughs*

More to come!

A Rat Painting in Progress.

Time to actually do some painting… something that I have somewhat neglected recently, until my loving husband and turned around to give me a bit of a gentle nudge in the ‘I want to see you painting again’ direction. So here starts a new piece… I know that there are many that I should go back and actually finish… some of which I actually -want- to finish… but, they are just going to have to wait for the moment as I re-hone my skills once more on this wonderful little rattie.

Not really all that much to see yet – white pencil on black canvas, at this point… I’ve come to realize that I am rather loving starting to work from a black base, and building up from there… the canvas is actually a fair amount larger than the tiny snippet you see there, but this is the most detailed section sketched out at this point… so you get to see this portion!

More to come when there is more done. That’s all for today!
