The theme of this months’ Nibblefest is “doorways” or “open doors” and I had the idea of painting a door open onto a beautiful garden. But it looked empty so I thought I’d add a cat for a point of interest. And after I painted it, it hit me: I was painting Mandu in what I hope is an environment she would like. (There would be mice and cream, of course, but that didn’t fit the theme.
Here’s a closeup of just cat:
Here’s a closeup of just the climbing rose:
thats a lot of detail for an 8×12
Oh! Cat Mandu! Just outside the door you KNOW there are fat slow doves and rabbits for the taking… at least that would be my cat’s idea of heaven.
This is just BEAUTIFUL!
Yes, this is beautiful, Karen–and I see you’ve got several bids and time to go yet. And I just learned that you have an eBay store. Thinking of you on this rainy So Cal night.
So beautiful, Karen! I hope I win the auction. Something about this just called out to me. I love it!
Very beautiful! I’m sorry I missed the auction because I would have bid for sure!
