Artist Mike Holmes began illustrating a series of comic book like illustrations surrounding his life with his cat Ella. He's back again with some more work of art featuring himself and his dynamic kitty cat.
It began in 2011 and it's been a hit since. Following their lives together, artist Mike Holmes drew up a series of comic book illustrations that feature awkward and adorable moments he and his cat share. Inspired by famous cartoonists such as Berkeley Breathed, Chuck Jones and Gary Larson, Holmes' artwork really took off. His newest editions to the cat comics include a Grinch-themed illustration I simply adore.
This is a comic book collection pet lovers can relate to and I paws-itively love.
