This is my painting of Spike the cat. Spike was sitting for me and I was thoroughly displeased with his pose and voiced my displeasure quite profusely. Upon hearing my complaints Spike shifted into this new position which I found to be aesthetically pleasing. When I was finished I informed Spike thusly and he promptly jumped off his posing chair to run off to do whatever the hell cats do when they are not modeling for artists. He never said "your welcome" but he probably figured it wasn't necessary since I was also the person who cleaned up his poop.
