The internet is filled with cute, silly, wholesome, and gorgeous photos of cats.
Indonesian artist, Amelia Rizky, decided all those photos deserve an artistic treatment and we couldn't agree more.
So, she turned them all into Purr-fect digital watercolors, to the enjoyment of her 205K Instagram followers.
Just scroll through or as the artist put it: "Purr more, hiss less."
If you can't get enough, you can always check our previous item on the talented artist.

"Animals should not require our permission to live on earth. Animals were given the right to be here long before we arrived".
This quote by Anthony Douglas Williams sums up the sad reality of animal abuse in this world.
An artist by the name of milkdongcomics decided to create a series of shocking illustrations that will make humans feel uncomfortable and raise awareness about this sad reality.
He called his project "Murder scene", hoping it will make humans rethink their actions while creating a safer world for animals.
Ryan and Lucy Berkley are illustrators couple from Portland, Oregon, who are creating comic-book-inspired art and prints using mainly markers and colored pencils.
One of their best-known projects is the "Animals in Suits" series where they tackle surreal subject matter in a very friendly way.

Well, it's finally happened. We've all gone crazy.
The whole 'reimagined Disney Princesses' is extremely overdone to the point of exhaustion. You say to yourself, there's no way they can be reimagined into something remotely interesting anymore. But if there's a will, there's a way!
Disney Princesses reimagined as cats reimagined as sharks... Oh, and they're not princesses at all. Honestly, we love this fresh take of the whole 'reimagined' palooza.
Introducing "Shark Cats" by the talented Brynn Metheney! "It was a normal day when I grabbed my sketchpad and began to doodle. What came out were scribbles of a horrible little creature: the Shark Cat. The initial design was based on the thresher shark. I found that the short face and extremely large eyes worked well with the "cat aesthetic". Shark Cats have been featured all over the internet and continue to bring joy and terror to those who stumble across them. "
This is neat! We've never given much thought as to what "sounds" languages around the world would give certain animals.
Not to sound naive but we definitely thought "meow" was universal for the sound a cat makes... turns out, not so much.
Creator of this super interesting and well-drawn graphics is freelance illustrator James Chapman. You can follow his Tumblr, Instagram, Facebook and/or Twitter to be kept up-to-date with these fanasinating graphics! Did you know, in English, we say dogs go "Woof," but in Romanian they go "Ham Ham?"
Just something to think about.
Cicada, a beautiful illustration series by the talented Shaun Tan.
Cicada is the story of an insect working in an office (much like a lot of us), and trying to make it through the day surrounded by people who simply do not care. Shaun Tan writes on his website that Cicada is, "a very simple 32-page picture book about the unspoken horrors of corporate white-collar enslavement... or is it? You never can tell what a bug is thinking."
Here are 10 pages of Cicada and we're already itching for more!

Welcome to the American bestiary catalog! A catalog full of animals, birds, and other interesting natural (or sometimes imaginary) phenomena.
According to this 12th century author, the purpose of bestiary is "to improve the minds of ordinary people, in such a way that the soul will at least perceive physically things which it has difficulty grasping mentally: that what they have difficulty comprehending with their ears, they will perceive with their eyes."
Thanks to CashNetUSA, for assembling all the greatest mythical creatures within the US, and illustrating them so wonderfully!

Artist Yash Pandit has shared illustrations of how his cat, Bagheera, has helped him with his depression.
And all we can say is that cat's are pretty magical creatures. They're comforting and loving, their purrs calm our souls, their sweet faces slowly blinking at you... you can't help but feel something warm stir within you, when you have a cat.
Thank you for sharing Yash Pandit!
