ShouXin's Captivating Cat Drawings


[A link party about art issues hosted by


This contemporary artist is an absolute master
of minimalism and the powerful use of negative space.

With just a few simple lines of graphite surrounding
detailed, expressive eyes, ShouXin creates dynamic
portraits which perfectly capture feline
character, moods, and physicality.

  10. I adore those simple cat drawings. Simple but also not something everyone can accomplish.
    I can't seem to join SITAR today. It is strange.

    1. @ Gene Black -- Yes, there's some kind of problem on Nicole's blog. I'm sure she'll fix it later today once she's aware of it.

  11. These are absolutely fabulous. What an amazing artist. And they somehow remind me of a thing a guitar player friend of mine said which was that it's not the notes you play, it's the notes you don't play.
