Highsmith Sketches

It seems that one drawing of Patricia Highsmith wasn’t enough. I keep doodling her (and her cats) in my sketchbooks. One of her cats was named Spider. She loved cats a lot. According to Urich Weber, curator of her archive, Highsmith was “very happy among cats. They gave her a closeness that she could not bear in the long-term from people. She needed cats for her psychological balance.”
