"Carpet Killer" JENNY & More

PASTEL 16"x24"

LARGE - and it's very simplicity took as long (longer) than a more detailed sketch...so don't be deceived!   I had to practice the swoop of the lines and outline several times before I went into this one.  I did black outlines with permanent marker SO WHATEVER WENT DOWN WAS THERE FOREVER!

Jenny (obviously) rolling around on - and ripping up - the carpet.  She does it with such gusto it's hard not to laugh.  Our carpets (TG) are surprisingly resilient and despite this frequent abuse show no damage!   Motto is:  buy cheap carpets!  They're TOUGH.

Brave of you re the black marker - shows how good you are, coz.
Love jenny's airbrushed nethers.

Nothing in her nethers! I mean not visible. Fur, fur and more fur. I had the same thought tho, as in they are SO discreet - the Victorians surely appreciated that? - as compared to dogs, especially the boys!

Why scratch and tug at a scratching post when you can decimate carpets!!? It does look like much more fun....and Jenny's personality shines through even on this "simple" sketch.
