I’ve been playing with my new iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. Starting to get to grips with drawing digitally (luckily, being a photographer, already knowing Photoshop is a massive advantage). This was drawn from a photo I found on the internet, but it had just been reposted by someone without info about the subject or photographer, so I went searching and found this blog! From what I can tell (my Japanese is rudimentary), the photographer was this boy’s father, the blog belongs to the boy (now man) himself, and it appears they lived in Takayama 😃 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It says this photo was taken in 1956. You can see the photo on the blog here (sorry I can’t create a click-through link, you’ll have to copy & paste 😖): http://kiokuno1010.blog31.fc2.com/blog-entry-102.html?sp ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #art #instaart #instaartist #drawing #digitalart #boy #cat #neko #catart #ねこ #猫 #日本 #日本人 #mikomayer #ipadpro2018 #ipadpro #applepencil

Those two star-crossed cats, Romeo and Juliet 😉☺️🐾 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I painted this awhile ago, but pulled it out to put on Redbubble as a greeting card so thought I’d share here 🙂❤️🐾 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #art #instaart #instaartist #instaartwork #catart #illustration #cats #romance #valentines #valentine #sweet #cute #watercolor #ink #drawing #meow

For those who follow my cat account, @PonzutheCat, apologies for the post duplication! This is a little graphic I drew of Inari, our kitten whose candy cane video has gone viral (unfortunately largely without us getting credit 😿) and it is the first image up on my new Redbubble shop ( https://www.redbubble.com/people/mikomayer/shop?asc=u ) Apologies for the self-promotion! Just wanted to share what’s been going on with us! Hope you’re all having a good weekend! ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #inarithekitten #candycanekitten #ponzuthecat #candycanecat #original #caturday #catart #catartist #instaart #instaartist #digitalart #graphicdesign #illustration #neko #ねこ＃猫 #子猫 #katze #katzen #gato #chat

Merry Christmas! Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and all the best for 2019! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This ink and watercolour of our two cats is both our Christmas greeting and our Christmas wish as our grown-up girl, Ponzu, wasn’t all that keen on our little white kitten, Inari, when I first drew this to be our Christmas card this year. With luck, patience, perseverance, and lots of love, we feel so happy (and relieved!) that our Christmas wish has come true and in the last week they really have started getting along better! We hope your Christmas is full of magic and happiness too! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Miko, Nick, Ponzu & Inari ❤️🐾 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #christmas #art #watercolor #watercolour #painting #drawing #ink #inkdrawing #christmasart #christmascard #cats #cat #catart #wish #christmaswish #artist #artistsoninstagram

Been drawing, but not posting, so thought I ought to share something! Just finished this little one in graphite and ink. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #drawing #art #sketch #artistsoninstagram #inkdrawing #illustration #inksketch #ink #inkonpaper #penandink #pendrawing #graphite #mixedmedia #mixedmediaart #elephant #babyanimal

Inktober Day 19: Owl An owl we saw at the Hawk Conservancy Trust awhile back. If you’re into birds at all and are ever near Andover in the UK, it’s well worth a trip. Not entirely happy with how this drawing turned out (partly down to execution on my part and partly to using a new paper that I won’t be using with ink again), but sharing anyway as I’m behind on my Inktober pieces 😉 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #inktober #inktober2018 #inktoberday19 #drawing #art #artistsoninstagram #inkdrawing #illustration #svslearn #inksketch #ink #inkonpaper #penandink #pendrawing #owl @hawk_conservancy_trust

Happy Caturday!!! This photo may give the impression that Inari is having a quiet morning—don’t let it fool you! 😸 (Inari is hyper and Ponzu is wisely watching from a distance 😹) Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend! ❤️🐾 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #ponzuthecat #inarithekitten #caturday #saturdaycaturday #cat #kittensofinstagram #neko #ねこ #猫 #instacat #katze #katzen #gato #chat #iphonex

Happy Sunday! Inari’s been getting most of the attention on Insta recently, as I was in a hidey mood, so I thought I’d best remind people that grown-up kitties can strike a pose too 😽 With pounces and purrs, Ponzu the Cat ❤️🐾 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #ponzuthecat #cat #instacat #ねこ #猫 #feline #chat #katze #katzen #gato #cute #kawaii #photography #iphone #mikomayer

It’s the weekend! Happy Caturday, cats and co! There’s been some Spring cleaning going on (no we haven’t been watching Marie Kondo, this is just normal Spring cleaning! 😋😸) Inari was pretty sure this activity was all about her playing in new places. (Kittens! 😹) Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend! ❤️ Ponzu & Inari 🐾(& our humans 😸) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #inarithekitten #candycanekitten #ponzuthecat #cat #kitten #whitecat #neko #katze #katzen #gato #chat #feline #猫 #ねこ #iphonex #caturday #saturdaycaturday

Dear felines and friends, we apologise for the shameless self-purrmotion, but Inari the Candy Cane Cat now has her own merchandise! 😺 We’ve started a Redbubble store 😸🐾 Only the one design so far, but more to follow. All art is by our human mum (@mikomakesstuff)! With purrs and pounces, Ponzu & Inari ❤️🐾 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #inarithekitten #candycanekitten #ponzuthecat #cat #catsofinstagram #catart #katzen #猫 #neko #ねこ #gato #katze #funnycat #whitecat #redbubble #instaart #instaartist #面白い猫
