Something Spooky This Way Comes

I started thinking about my next piece of art earlier today and so began doodling. I am always prone to drawing a lot of loops and squiggles for some reason. When I showed them to my boyfriend and asked him if he had any ideas about what I should paint next, he said that the doodle reminded him of Medusa.

So, I whipped up this painting. Don't let her cute exterior fool you though as she can be quite deadly. You can find a print of this painting here on Etsy:

Time for a Nap

I'm so excited to announce that my "Sleepytime Print" made it into this beautiful Etsy treasury!"I'm Just So Sleepy" Etsy Treasury

Stormie is napping right now and I'm so sleepy I seriously feel like taking one with him. Still, there's grocery shopping and more work to do.

Bird Watching at Night

Cats are nocturnal animals by nature and I'm reminded of this on a daily basis every time I try to catch some z's at night. All I hear are either the jingles of his little toys or of him running around. There's one thing I certainly don't mind though. Stormie has a habit of jumping on the bed to nuzzle me with his wet nose several times a night and then run away. I call it a "Stormie kiss."

Stormie also climbs up on our window sill to stare outside. He usually does so at dawn when the birds are chirping. This is what inspired me to do this painting. I love the way the landscape appears to be lit by the moon.

I also have a daytime version of this painting if you prefer.

Day or night, Stormie always keeps me amused!
