Happy Thursday, everyone! Life is good, and I’ve only got a couple pages to show you this week. This one is inspired by one of my favorite scenes in Arrested Development, where Gob finally swallows a key for a future trick. I’m a professional magician, too. In fact, we all are.

The left page features an envelope, with the idea that you never know what’s inside. And the right is a timid little cat, making human hands. Fierce, right?

Definitely a fan of the cat. That is my favorite cat.
My favorite cat is still Bug, but I’ll allow this.
I like the meaning behind the envelope. Cute pages, the cat face especially!
