3 Cool Cats

Good morning, friends!

Things continue to be "full speed ahead" around here as we get ready for fright night. So we're up to our eyeballs in costume-building and treat-making. I haven't had a ton of time to dedicate to art, but I've been getting some done. Little by little... Here are a three new pieces. I merged 'em all into one pic to save space. In reality, each one is about 3.5" X 12 and I can't recall what kind of wood it is. Maple? Or ash? I'll have to check with hub-a-roni.


Oh and to those of you who've left me comments to publish over the last month... I've tried SEVERAL times to publish them. Everyt ime there was a problem with either Blogger or HughesNet. Sorry for the delay - I wasn't ignoring any of you!! :o))

Zulu Luv


UPDATE Fri, Nov 14: We lost Zulu a couple weeks ago and things just haven't been the same around here since. We miss you, girl, and think about you every day, especially Chloe. I keep your picture on the art bench, since you liked it so well there. I'll never forget those days and nights you kept me company while I painted. You're a sweetie, Zulu. We love you and will never forget you...
:(
Well, I just changed my profile to reflect the newest member of our family: Zulu

Zulu came to be a part of our family the day that I found her (or she found me). She was literally starving to death. Oh man, she was mangy! Her fur was thin and you could actually see her bones poking out, especially her hip bones. Poor thing doesn't even have a VOICE! Oh yeah, she's a complete mess.

But we brought her home and smothered her with food and love. She's still teeny tiny - and I...mean...TINY! But she's much healthier. She's been here a few weeks and is finally getting comfortable moving around the house. She's just a DOLL!

The best thing about her is her face. She looks like a ROYAL "B". It's just how her face looks. But we laugh when she looks at us because she's purring away, yet her face looks like she could just smack ya one! lol


...And aNOTHer 2 months gone by..

...sigh... I just don't know how so much time escapes me. I try so hard to keep up with blogging, but as soon as I get on a roll, life starts happening and "more important things to tend to" begin pouring in like a hail storm. On the flip side, I HAVE gotten a lot of art done.

Here are some acrylic paintings on watercolor paper.
