nine black cats, one white

Watercolor, colored pencil for queenberuthiel.* Swimming cat courtesy DK. Psychobilly 80s layout courtesy too many Paper Moon greeting cards.

For those who don't feel like slogging through Unfinished Tales of Numenor and Middle-Earth: "The dark and mournful Queen to Tarannon Falastur, the twelfth King of Gondor. She owned ten marvellous and magical cats, that she set to spy on the doings of the people of Gondor. Her scheming was her undoing, though, since her husband set her adrift on the Great Sea, with only her cats for company. She sailed into the far south and was never heard of again, but she and her mysterious cats lived on in legend for millennia."

*Beebs, if you want the original, big-ass scan to print out or make wallpaper or whatever, e-mail me. I tried to give you the head from The Beguiling of Merlin as on your icon, but couldn't make it work, so you get a different Pre-Raphaelite instead. Deal.

This is Parvati writing (yes I can type), since Queen B. is sort of beside herself staring at the computer screen in wonder and making silly happy noises.

You are REALLY good with cats, Ann. Damn, you got us just right! This is great! Bravo! We are all gathered around the screen and admiring your work!

Meow... I will share my caviar with you any day!
