I was contemplating whether to pack acrylic paints for a short getaway with family and friends. In the end, I dumped the paints because it did not make sense to lug around a heavy bag for a few days spent at a beach resort. Yet, I did not want to be caught unprepared when the mood to paint struck. So, I took my chinese brushes, bottle of ink and two sketchpads. I even brought along watercolour paints. In the end, I only made use of the ink.

A cat hung around during meal times and we fed it with whatever extra food we had. My first attempt to paint this cat was disastrous because it looked like a giant rat.
This is a improved version of the earlier painting because the rat features were less pronounced.
