if you need some help learning to draw the kitten outline on your adult cat, I have a few minutes to draw some / just drop your cat photo in the thread and I’ll do as many as I can ✍️
this is all I have time for today but I may have time tomorrow, thank you for showing me your incredible creatures ✨❤️
brief thread intermission - here are some of the shapes that have fit various cats so far - this may help those I cannot personally draw (on blue bg and then on transparent bg)
it brings me joy to see the ones you all create, like this ❤️
DIY artists note: in my experience it helps to use a dark cut-out on light fur and light cut-out on dark fur and then sometimes just an outline (on light and dark fur)
thank you all this has been exceptionally fun✨
Peter I put your cat in space, it just felt right ❤️

tips on drawing cats: a thread
many cats have a favorite object that they obsess over and it’s good to give the cat the object and see what they do. this also makes for a more personalized drawing
cats expand quickly but if you want to draw the kitten version of a cat just do an outline like this, keeping the head the same size

Is it common for McDonald’s have a pleasant waterfall in the back to soothe you while you wait for your order at the drive through?

I need to know how rare this experience is so I can visit all the McDonald’s waterfalls
Good news everyone, we have located a second McDonald’s Drive Through Waterfall. I google mapped it and there is indeed a photo of the waterfall!
Third McDonalds Drive Through Waterfall* is in Colorado. Congrats to Colorado!

*I’m told they turn the waterfall off occasionally

Right before I started Strange Planet I tried to launch a series called Dolphlock Bones: Fishteries Mysteries. Dolphin solving mysteries with an assistant, Flotsam. It did not take off! Strange Planet was not my first try.

If you are trying to make something try many somethings
I try to share it as often as possible to break through the perception of “instant, overnight success.” That idea used to intimidate me so much as someone who works better with iterations!
creative journey for me has not been like climbing a mountain as much as walking along a long ridge looking for the right opening to be able to cross (but also it’s raining sometimes?)

some friends I’ve made with @instagram’s pinning tool
this started out with simple pins!
early on I pinned a suitcase to a very busy pigeon
Then I learned that Instagram’s pinning tool creates delightful chaos-
Pinned objects can fall off and create an opportunity for a story.
