Artist Statement (what LOUISA642 said about their artwork)
My inspiration for this piece of artwork is my cat. He is a Burmese cat, just like the cat in the picture. (Also the day I made it I was going to a coffee shop!) If I were to create it again, I would add something to the cat's face to make it look more like a man with a cat head. Not like a halloween costume. I would add a hat or a different accessory to make it look like its supposed to be there. To create this artwork, I had to find two perfect images to blend together. I had it in my head that I really wanted to do a Burmese cat (because of my cat) so I found one at an angle that looked like it could fit onto a human neck. Then I found a person who had a similar skin tone. Once I had the two images I took the humans head and neck away, and put the cats head in. I blended in some areas like the neck to make it look realistic, but thats about it!
