Hello, I Am MelC…

A trained couturier, qualified lawyer, and now an artist and author. I create pen and ink sketches of pets and post them daily on Instagram under the banner, Cats and Quotes. The quotes are to bring me and my furriends inspiration and motivation each day of the week. My muses are my two Norwegian Forest cats and other gorgeous cats (and other animals) I find on Instagram and sketch with their owners' permission. I hope you like all these fast and loose inky pawtraits.

My illustrations are available to buy here as beautiful art prints on premium art paper and also reproduced on a selection of stationery (including greetings cards), homewares and apparel.

About Me

hello, I am Mel, wedded to Garry
we live in Bucks, at Cliveden we did marry
I'm a qualified solicitor, working in movies
we live with two big fluffy loonies
they are Norwegian forest cats
and they purr, chirrup and love loadsa pats
cuddles, brushes and treats
I got out my pens, ink and paper sheets
and doodled them into my sketchbook
it’s become a daily motivational hook
to post my art with a quote to inspire
our daily well-being, of which I won’t tire
we all love my new side-hustle
so it’s super fun to flex that muscle
by drawing each day to create new art
of my cats and yours, fills my heart
with joy and achievement, I want to fulfil
your requests and commissions with my skill
so please get in touch and tell me how
I can bring you more joy here and now.
