December - Zoominescence & Cat Tricks

Hello again everyone. Hope you're doing well, wherever you might be.

Things are continuing to chug along. We're almost halfway into December, and the holiday season is nearly upon us. I am looking forward to having a few extra days off, and the chance to do some winter activities.

A few years ago my husband and I went to Zoominescence. I finally made a video with the footage, which you can watch here: 

I love that carousel. I might request to go see Zoominescence for this holiday season just to see it again. 😊

I'm also working on another video, finally, one of my cat, Maho, and focusing on the tricks I taught him to do. It was several years ago that I actually trained him, but either because he was quite young or just persistence, he picked up the tricks quite quickly and has never forgotten them. When I have it done I'll post it in a page on my blog too. Hopefully sometime over the holidays.

Well, I'm going to work now! Have a nice day.

Been a while... And Cat Art!

Been a while since I've last blogged. What have I been up to? Not much, been working, and enjoying the drive out to Wetaskiwin every day, even in spite of the winter road conditions & loads of snow that seems to fall every week. I am glad to see the sun slowly coming back.

So lately I've been delving into watercolour pencil crayons. After some experiments last summer that didn't really work out, I think I've finally figured out how to use these and get some nice results.

Not really aboriginal artwork, but they're cute. I added two kitties to my Etsy page, the grateful kitty is here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/66345763/grateful-kitty-original

And my pink kitty is here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/67075943/pink-cat-purple-bow-original

I plan to list more, & am thinking of turning them into small cards.

Update 2021: I still have these paintings. If you are interested, they are available. They also led to a few commissions of people's pet cats, so if you'd like to have me create a piece for you, send me a note.
