This week's blog post was use of good illustration. This picture is very effective at disrupting the viewer's tranquil thoughts, or at least it'll stick in their mind. Like many of Searle's pictures, the line indicating the cats fur is jagged and going in all different directions to create discord. Most of the body is made up of the face, like a children's picture, only taken in a darker tone. The only color that cat be seen in this picture are it's emphasized eyes, that look somewhat like the inside of a jawbreaker. The text on the partner page is also something to take into consideration. The page reads "A rather timid wolf in cat's clothing." In a book full of cats, I find this quote to be quite sinister.
