Alongside her Spirit

I love the idea of spirit animals. Mine is the opossum. Not everyone's favorite, to be sure, but I adore them and love and appreciate all of their unique super powers. As I began working on this woman I knew her spirit animal was some sort of cat. So beside her this cheetah walks...or maybe it's beside the cheetah she walks. I wonder if there's an opossum out there that considers me her spirit animal. Hope so!

This is a collage piece that I painted over and then added some texture, echoing the cheetah's spots. The textured pieces sparkle.

He's Lyin' about Bein' a Lion

Our little kitten.

He imagines himself to be a great golden predator...seeking out and attacking his prey.

Only thing is, his prey is our ankles as we walk by the bed and he takes a great leap out capturing us in his great claws.   And our feet under the covers, any move we make is attacked and he clampes down upon our toes with his mighty jaws.

I love our little King of the Jungle.
