That's what we call this view from our bedroom window. It's our cat Pearl's favorite film. She watches it several times a day, from her front row seat on the window ledge.
This sketch is done for the International Moleskine Exchange group Moly x_9_, which I participate in with some lovely people and fantastic artists, including Joan Y, whose contribution you can partially see in the lefthand side of the final image below.
Get out the popcorn. It's movie time!





Thanks so much, buddies! I had fun with this scene, as you can see!

I love watching cats watching birds! Do you think somebody might come up behind me and paint me too? ;)
Lovely composition and painting Laura.

Gorgeous, Laura. I'd like to watch with Pearl.
There are more birds around here this year than I've ever noticed before. Lots of Pearl's relatives too, but not so well-behaved unfortunately. Therefore I can't put out feeders because I'd be feeding the local moggies.
