DJ Cat with Headphones & Sunglasses β Rock & Roll Perler Bead Art (Shaped)
π§ Perfect for: music lovers, DJs, cat enthusiasts, retro design fans, and anyone who believes a pair of headphones and a turntable make everything better.
π± This shaped Perler bead artwork features a cool grey-and-white tabby cat at the centre, outlined in black beads. The cat wears dark sunglasses and orange-red over-ear headphones β the look of a DJ who's about to drop the beat.
ποΈ One paw raises the classic rock 'n' roll sign β index and pinky up. The other paw rests on a black-and-white DJ turntable deck, ready to mix. Behind the cat, a bold retro sunrise pattern radiates in alternating red and pale beige bands β a tribute to vintage Japanese design aesthetics.
πΆ The piece uses different shades of beads to create depth and contrast β the grey tabby stripes, the glossy black sunglasses, the bright orange-red headphones, and the warm retro sunrise all work together. Every bead is placed to make this DJ cat feel as cool as the music it's about to play.

π§‘ A Note From the Maker
I wanted to create a cat that wasn't just cute β I wanted it to be cool. A cat that doesn't just sit there, but actually does something. So I gave it a turntable. I gave it headphones. I gave it the rock 'n' roll hand sign. And I put it in front of a retro sunrise background because every cool cat needs a dramatic backdrop.
The grey-and-white tabby stripes took a lot of careful shading β different tones of grey to make the fur look layered. The sunglasses had to be dark enough to feel cool but still readable in pixel form. And the sunrise? That red and pale beige combination is pure vintage Japan.
Every finished piece is handβfused by me. Every kit is sorted with care. No machines, no shortcuts β just beads, patience, and a love for cats with attitude.
Thank you for supporting a oneβperson studio.
