Felix riding rocking horse in the snow. Felix adored our old and battered rocking horse. Tinted drawing of The Cat and The rocking horse in the Wolds. Introduction. There is a unique bond between a cat and it's home territory. The artistic process for me is to know how the owners of the cats respond to the individual personality and character of their pets. Working from photographs if it not possible to see the cats personally. Storytelling through Art can convey the relationship and sentiments between the cats and their owners for decades to come. From my perspective as an artist I hope to capture the world of the adventure that cats embrace and enjoy in their everyday life. I had a wonderful ginger tom cat and he loved my wooden rocking horse. Below are examples of just some of my paintings and drawings inspired by their picturesque relationship.

Nelly having a wash on a prayer chair. It's been raining. Stripy opens the window and prepares to jump out into the garden. I find that cats particularly favour china to drink from rather than plastic !! Cats at Home display unique behaviour habits and turn our homes into playgrounds. They also have special places to sleep, eat and relax. Here in these posts are some of my feline friends and other cats I have painted for other people. He spotted me admiring him all curled up around the fruit. It was raining outside, did he care !!!! My cat Felix using a very old and worn rocking horse, showing a kitten how to exercise indoors.
