I painted lots of cat rocks this week! These sleepy kitties are based on a black and white drawing I saw in an ad for a mug. I hid them last Saturday.
This kitty in the rain is based off a design by funusualsuspects.
I hid her Monday morning. I love this photo with the sunrise behind her!
These kitties were based off of several black and white cat drawings I had saved on my phone. I hid these on my Wednesday run.
This avo-cat-o was based on an ad for a shirt from TeeTurtle. Steven hid him on Wednesday (he came with me on my run and walked while I ran).
Oh my gosh these otters. I love how they turned out. The bottom left one is my favorite. They are based on stickers from an ad for Kawaii Pen Shop. I plan to hide these tonight.
I decided to browse the Kawaii Pen Shop insta to look for other inspo and found these cats in mugs. These turned out okay but I prefer my original cats in mugs. I will hide these tonight too.
This ninja cat is based off of a pin from Funusual Suspects. I tried to draw in the throwing star but after not getting it right after four tries I just decided he doesn’t need one. Ha. I’ll hide him on a run this weekend.
The wild one below was based on a sticker I saw in a sponsored post for Shop Moods, then I based the other two on it (oh my gosh, I repainted “wander” so many times – it’s hard to get type correctly placed! And it kind of looks like “wonder.” Ha.). I browsed the Shop Moods insta and found a lot of inspo ideas. Most of my ideas seem to come from t-shirt, stickers, mugs, and tea towels. Not sure if I will hide these tonight or on a run this weekend.
In other rock and panting news:
- I am working on painting daisies on a pair of jeans for my snis. I will share a picture when she has them so we can see how they look on her!
- The Instagram follower shenanigans on rockstagram is amusing. I don’t see a lot of people doing it, but when they do, it’s so obvious! They follow you and like a bunch of posts and comment then immediately unfollow… I guess hoping you’ll follow back? I don’t need every account I follow to follow me back, but when they are so desperate for follows that they do that, it makes me NOT want to follow them, even if I like their work. Shrug. I just don’t get the need for ALL. THE. FOLLOWERS. Yes, I am excited when I have more, but it’s just organic – I don’t use hashtags or play games with following others to get follow backs. And let’s not even get started on the spammy DMs with “follow these ten accounts and forward them and you’ll get 5,000 followers!” Huh?!
Avo-cat-o? That. Rocks. See what I did there?
Ha, yes!
Omg the otters!! I am in love with them. The tree rocks are also great, but I can imagine how tough it is to write words like that!
I see a lot of weird stuff like that on my cat account. At least once a week, a spam account will comment about “collaborating” with them and it’s so annoying. The whole “follow then unfollow” business is my LEAST favorite. It’s so dumb.
Thanks! I really thought the otters were adorable! And it’s super tough to get the placement of the lettering right. If I was only doing lettering I’d write it with pencil and trace over but I can’t do that on paint. Well, I personally can’t because I am too impatient to let it dry enough for that. And it messes up the paint if you erase on it.
Gah, who falls for that stuff, right? I guess enough for them to keep doing it!
The otters <3
π Otters are just so stinking cute!
All great rocks. Love the otters. The funniest one is the orange cat with the butthole in full view. He he
Thanks! Ha ha ha, those butthole cats are so popular! It’s funny how much people like them!
