Cat in a Bucket

Hello!  It is a beautiful day here in Virginia and I hope your life is moving along smoothly…

 

Do you love cats? I like cats but have never owned one. Both of my adult daughters love cats and own them.

So knowing that my daughters love cats I think it would seem natural for me to paint something that one of my daughters loves. 

 

This kitten belonged to my oldest daughter and one day when she was playing in the sand box one of her kittens climbed into the bucket and I took a picture of them. 

 

 So here is the picture that I painted. I hope you enjoyed viewing it and if you would like to purchase one of my paintings you may find them here. http://www.etsy.com/shop/DessieFullTimeArtist

Kitty Cat Playing in a Red Bucket

 June 23, 2012

Hello! I hope you are doing well today; our weather here in Virginia was just a tad bit cooler today, we had a little wind last night, it blew a few things over.  After the tornado that we had recently I took some supplies into the bath room, candle, matches, flash light, one never knows when the flashlight batteries won’t work. I had never thought about leaving telephone numbers in the bathroom before, I do now!

This is a panting of my daughters kitty cat that I did several years ago when she was playing in her sand box. I hope you enjoy it. 

The print of this painting can be purchased here and it comes in several sizes, my prints can be mated, framed or printed on a stretched canvas with either black or mirrored side and are ready to hang  There is also a good selection of frames to choose from..  There is a 30 day guarantee on my art work.
