ramonaghan Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I have a tradition of buying or making portraits of my pets—not commissioned pieces, just art that reminds me of them. Willa's arrived this weekend. Nailed it! Here's Doolin's (no side by side, but trust me that this is a view I see often over the kitchen counter). And the girly who started it all. Quote Rachel with littermates Doolin and Willa, boss cat Tootie, and feline squatters Crumpet and Fezziwig. Missing gentlemen kitties Mud, Henry, and Richard and our beautiful, feisty, silly Sweep.
