Kiwi is my clown boy. He is just so amusing, I can't even stand it sometimes. His brother Mango, both adopted in June, is a serious fellow but Kiwi is a mischief maker, king of the roost, an escape artist, very athletic yet totally chill. And incredibly handsome, that little tux. He was around 3 when we got him from the local animal shelter. He came in as a stray. Figures, he's always trying to get out of the house. But someone's loss is our gain because he has just added so much to this household with his completely charming, clownish ways.

I took a few pictures of my boys a couple of weeks ago, including this one of Kiwi. In the original, which is on this blog, Mango is photobombing him. So I removed Mango in Photoshop and then created this image of Kiwi in the way I see him. The dancing clown.

I added a little red clown nose, a vintage circus background (thank you to Wheel of Fish at Deviant Art for the awesome design) and a grungy parchment texture. That was pretty much it. Oh, yeah, it was difficult cutting Mango out but it didn't have to be super perfect because I knew the textures would pretty much take care of sort of obscuring the rough edges.

And this is my beautiful cat, Kiwi.
