Calico Jill


Have you ever heard the tale about Calico Jill the pirate cat?  Well, her tail sported a hook.  And she had a happily ever after life.  Her ship was full of mice and rats.  The end!

Tail is the theme of the week over at www.illustrationfriday.com  It wasn't hard to choose Calico Jill for the pick of the week.  Almost everything I paint has a tail. So it was easy pickings!  And her tail is multi-functional.

oh she is wonderful, I would not want to mess with her but I'd like it if she could drop by and sort our youngest, that tail looks formidable plus she has nicer legs than I, is that fair?
