Aww thank you Chris! I sent you a pic of that cause I know you love Bassets. I am so happy with the way that one came out. It was hubby's favourite! His name is Virgil. Quite a handsome dude, isn't he?

OMG what a beautiful job you have done on all of them!!
You have an amazing talent, not only as an artist, but by warming peoples hearts and providing lifetime memories of furry family members. You should feel so proud

She was a hoot, . This cat is soooooo unique that I can't even express it in words.

I just noticed the last three additions to the 14+ Art Gallery.

Beautiful work as usual from such a talented lady.

And, soooo nice of you to donate Virgil to the bassett rescue.

But that will only be till I do your picture - it's coming eventually, I promise - and then you will have to have a fav for sure!

Actually TeriM was the first person I had attempted to do. I didn't quite do her justice but I will keep on trying.

Helen had sent me pictures of different bassets she has had in her rescue as well as her own. When I saw Virgil's picture I fell in love with his eyes. So soulful. I knew I had to do that picture. I think it would be wonderful if his forever family saw the picture and bid on it.

I just want to say thank you to all of you for your wonderful comments. It does my heart good to know you all like what I try to do. There is an old saying - It's better to give than receive. When it comes to my woodburnings I love giving!! I just hope you guys don't mind the receiving.

Nooo, the "try" comes in with "trying" to make people happy when they get the plaque. I am never sure how it is going to be received. Especially when it's someone I haven't met in person.

14+ I always knew you were an angel but you are so talented as well. You actually can feel the spirit of the animals in the portraits of them. I never saw this thread before

Many pictures don't portray how well she captures the eyes of the animal, it is just remarkable. I have the one of Rose in my office so I can see her all day . It is like Mastifflover stated, she captures the spirit.

Thank you Marko and chico for adding your pics to the "gallery". And thank you again chico for starting the gallery.
Sometimes I am so anxious to send out the pictures so folks can get them that I forget to take pictures of them first. In fact that is what happened with Markos' and chicos'. Silly of me. One day if I manage to get a website up I will add a link to this thread.
Thanks again everyone.

They are woodburnt Kalou. Possibly better known as pyrography. A little birdie told me I am getting the Cadillac of burners for Christmas this year. I can't wait!! I hope to be able to do finer lines and more detail with the new burner.

One of the best parts is that in her art work 14+ can capture the subtleties of every cat's face, because each cat has a different face. People that don't spend time with cats think they all look alike, like clones with different fur colors but it's not like that at all and 14+ shows she can portrait them as individuals with their distinctive features and the subtle ones as well.
