Description Second in the images used for 'Kitty's Log' at [link]

"Dear log,

Surf's up!

The waves are finally coming in, and it's about time! It's hard enough getting permission to hit the beach, let alone on a day when there's a chance to actually surf!

I know that most surfers say the beaches are usually crowded on good days, but they always seem to clear up when I get there! Maybe I'm just lucky?

I think getting out to get the waves is the best part. Paddling toward a good swell gets me stoked every time!

-K. Slider >^_^<"

This was one of the first images that came to mind when I was brainstorming about stuff to draw Kitty doing It's just such an iconic image for surfer's to dash towards the waves, board in hand, in hopes of getting there first. Kind of a childish excitement.

I had a lot of fun coloring this image too, as I really don't do sand and water all that often. It was neat to experiment and see what looked right and wrong.

Sorry for my late comments.

The expression on his face is just too cute... By the way, I was wondering if Kitty Slider would make a come back or if his life stopped with the project?
