Eyesore's style is quite distinctive, an intricate array of thin, black lines against a plain white background. I think they are from pen sketches that are enlarged up and printed up, perhaps through silkscreen methods. Cats are frequent subjects, though other animals are also featured. There is something unsettling about the cats, as if they were about to make a mad pounce at the viewer. Scale is large, most that I have seen are at least 36" along one length.
