This year two of my very good friends commissioned me to design their Christmas cards, and I had great fun with the illustration. They’ve got 3 cats, who we decided needed to be the stars of the show, as it were, all up to their usual mischief.
That’s Eddie down at the bottom playing Godzilla with the Nativity, Lucy at the top making contact with the Cthulhu tree topper, and Jessica can be seen playing impostor ornament in the middle of the tree. It’s done with ink & Copic markers, and was a lot of fun (except inking the tree, which was insanely tedious, but I love the effect so I will pretend to myself it was fun).
A Merry, Mischievous Christmas to everyone, whether or not you celebrate — it’s still an awesome excuse for a day off!

It looks great. 🙂 I love the detail on the cats, and the wiggly Cthulhu tentacle reaching out to Lucy.
Merry Christmas!

@Chris thank you! We had fun trying to corner the cats enough for photo references. 😉
