Cartoon cat and dog on forearms

Forearm · Colour · Photo

Two cartoon characters, a cat on the left arm and a dog on the right, are shown with smiling, open-mouthed expressions and standing poses. The linework is thin and reddish-brown, with flat yellow fills, red and purple accents on the noses and mouths, and soft shading on the bodies. The two designs sit close together across the forearms, with the skin tone and fabric of the surroundings visible at the edges.

Dear Mort,

Keep reading

The postman left your letter in my bucket again, the one with the hole in the bottom, so I had to chew it back into shape before I could read it. You say the fox at the wood's edge has been drinking from the goats' trough. Do not worry about the fox. You worry about everything. Last Tuesday you told the vicar's pig the moon was falling, and it took him two hours to find his hat.

Anyway, here is the news. Mrs Pritchard hung her washing on the big oak by the stile, and a crow stole the blue sheet, and I have decided this is a sign we should go up there tonight and get it back. You will say no. Then you will say yes, because you always do when I wag at you in that particular way.

We went up at dusk. Forests are not nice in the dark, Mort, I want that clear. The path smells of wet bracken and the roots keep trying to trip your paws. But at the top of the rise the crow was sitting on the sheet like a pudding, looking very pleased with itself, and you laughed so hard you fell backwards into the holly. I have never seen a cat so surprised by a plant.

We got the sheet. We were not dignified about it. I am writing this with a scratch across my nose, and you have a leaf stuck to your ear that you refuse to remove for the sake of your pride. Come round on Sunday. I will bring the sheet, and you can bring the crow's excuse.

Yours, with ears up, Rufus
