Artist August: Tracy Butler [Art Feature]

I have a thing for anthropomorphic cats, especially in 1920’s clothes, drinking, shooting tommy guns, and (most importantly) looking at each other exasperatedly. So Tracy Butler’s webcomic Lackadaisy is right up my alley. I love her fascination with words, her black humour, but most of all I love her expressions (in both facial and body language).

You can check out more of Tracy Butler’s work on the Lackadaisy website, her Tumblr, her DeviantArt, and you can follow her on Twitter.

I love this sheet of notes. It’s enormous though, so I had to chose a favourite bit. Of course it had to be Ivy. Definitely click on the link and check out the full thing though.
