I’ve been researching the most environmentally friendly cat litter, having to suddenly start using it. My cat Lottie has always gone to the loo outside, even refusing to use a litter tray when we had snow! However since having a bout of cystitis she is now using a litter tray. It is a minefield with …
Following on from my last post, I’ve finished painting Raining Cats and Dogs and it certainly did encourage it to rain. I’m pleased to have a full water butt again, ready for another spell of sunny weather, hopefully! Here’s a slide show of the painting with different views. I did have fun painting it using …
I’ve had this raining cats and dogs painting in mind for a while. I acquired a spare piece of perspex, which seemed perfect for a glass painting. I love Magritte’s Raining Men, so got the idea for raining cats and dogs. It is of course a well known saying but thought I’d take it literally! …
This is my cats favourite spot. She spends hours looking through the gap in the blinds, mind you it’s above a radiator too! Her other resting place is the conservatory, a more interesting view to the garden. I’d love to know what she’s watching. Seeing lots of cats gazing through windows inspired my painting below, now …
Firstly for those that read my last post October pituitary awareness month went well and the Pituitary Foundation is on target to raise more funds than last year. Thank you to my customers and readers for your support during the awareness week I held. Cat vases were popular and here are 2 more paintings in progress …
I recently had a lovely holiday in Greece, my first time. I’d heard that there are normally lots of cats in Greece roaming around. However my title is slightly deceiving as I hardly saw any cats! I hope you’ve enjoyed this taste of Greece, I’d definitely go back. I’m sorry not to have seen many …
Ever feel you’re being watched! I looked up from my desk to see my neighbours cat fascinated watching me paint. My cat Lottie has started sitting there too, making me feel guilty with the odd meow as I won’t let her in. However cats, glass and paint don’t make a good combination, so I’m not …
My cat Lottie was walking on three paws last week. It looked as though she had been bitten or possibly stung by a bee – My ceanothus was in full flower and swarming with bees, although heavy rain and wind has sadly battered the blossom since! She had a small raised bump on her paw …
In my last post I mentioned I planned to do a caption competition. For this I’m looking for art work. If you have any photos or pictures that have a great caption or perhaps you’re struggling with a title for a piece of work and would like ideas, please email me a photo to be …
Hope you’ve all had a good week. We’ve been teased with some lovely warm sunny days, only for it to turn cold again! Mind you it was unseasonally warm, so I guess we’re just back to normal March weather. Since having my cat Lottie she rarely goes out, although I can’t blame her with the …
