This illustrated scuba cat by artsyexistence was inspired by the real-life scuba cat which I will now post below.
Is anybody going to go ahead and draw scuba dog too? Thanks Sam!

Stephen Wiltshire is drawing the entire NYC skyline from memory

Diagnosed with autism at an early age, artist Stephen Wiltshire has been at the Pratt Institute since Monday drawing the entire New York City skyline — all 305 square miles of it — by memory. Stephen has the ability to remember things with incredibly detail and he can recall things like the number of columns on a building or the number of windows on a building (multiply this by several hundred buildings and you get a sense of how awesome Stephen is). Wiltshire, who has been featured in a number of TV documentaries about people with incredible talents because of their autism, has already drawn several other cities by memory.
To get a view of NYC, Wiltshire flew over the city in a helicopter just once and then started drawing at a public gallery space at Pratt on Monday. He hopes to finish the entire panoramic drawing by this Friday. If you want to keep up with Stephen’s progress, CBS News has a live feed of his public studio gallery where he is working from. See the live feed below.

Joel Johnson won a bid for “Wally Wood’s 22 Panels That Always Work!!” and has provided hi-res scans of the panels for the benefit of those on the internet. You might recognize some of the panels from your favorite newspaper comics…
Thanks Andy!
Wikipedia’s list of U.S. State dinosaurs

Thanks to JSTN, I now know that some states in the United States of America actually have official state dinosaurs. New York, unfortunately, does not declare a state dinosaur.
Also, if you have some free time, Wikipedia’s list for Lists of United States state insignia is quite interesting to go through. I didn’t know there were so many official state things.
