Space Cat (May 2004)

---

---

Space Cat is floating in space. In front of him is a space martini trophy, and he is wondering if he should drink it. His space ship has wondered off somewhat, and it is sending homing signals to his tree antenna, but he is not receiving because it's lunch time.

This piece was created using Photoshop Elements. I first created the cat, using various brushes and some filters, then I created the table and the space ship. For the background, I used a space image from NASA Hubble Space Telescope website as a reference photo. I filled the background layer with solid black color, then I created the red clouds. If you look closely at the red spots that make up the red clouds, you'll notice they are made of leafs. I added two yellow star clouds, and added white star dots in various sizes.
