Sketches from the Kitty Rock Band piece

These images represent some of the challenges I faced with working on this piece. As you know, Cats do not have opposable thumbs, and in order to present them playing in a rock band, I had to draw them as if they do. Unfortunately, you can't see the best in the painting, because of the size. Also, when I put the drumming cat on the painting, the one hand where you can see the opposable thumb best had to be covered up by drums when I put him in the illustration.
