[this has nothing to do with computers, but everything to do with cats,
so I've redirected this thread to rec.pets...]

Roger Dean is a well known commercial artist who has done, among other
things, many album covers for Yes.  He likes to work with a large, horizontal
canvas.  He also has cats.

One day he was working on a very important canvas, another Yes album cover.
Cat owners know what's coming:  he turned his back for a moment, and when he
turned around he saw one of his cats walking calmly across the wet canvas.

Fortunately, there were no weapons nearby.  Even more fortunately, the cat
has walked across the sky in the painting.  Dean grabbed some cotton balls
and some white paint and managed to turn the paw prints into clouds;  the
painting was salvaged and made it onto the album cover.

And if you look closely at the sky on the cover of "Yessongs", you can
clearly see cat prints in the clouds.  (The most interesting part is that
you can guess the size of the original canvas from the size of the paw
prints.  Either the cat was very small, or the canvas was huge.)
