Painting with Kittens.
So, today in my studio I began to grind ink. It seems that the grinding of ink is a thing that is irresistible to inky coloured kittens. As is the use of a brush on paper. Close supervision was obviously demanded and thought necessary by small paws. As a result I now have a piece of work that is produced using paper, ink, water, grindstone, brushed, experience, light and kittens. Oh, and gold leaf.
The finished piece, shown in the top image is being auctioned to raise money for The Snow Leopard Trust.
Current bidding is at £200 or around $320. To bid email Jackie ( the cat's mother). Bidding closes 48 after no more bids come in.
That is just charming. You must be so enjoying your new kittens.

Only by the two of us as Mr Bundle was off doing other interesting things. I think he was reading I am Cat in a corner somewhere,
ReplyDeleteYou captured the kitten beautifully. The background of pawprints is reminsicent of sponge painting on walls!
ReplyDeleteI haven't visited in oh so long, but this painting drew me in...lovely and mystical!
ReplyDeletePainting with kittens is definitely the way to go!
ReplyDeleteOh I wish I had more wall space!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect choice of charity too...there are so few of those beautiful snow leapards left in the wild now
Oh, such helpful paws! We try to be helpful, but I'm afraid our idea of "help" is not always what She thinks.
ReplyDeletePS I started a new blog.

ReplyDeleteThe kitten footprints add something to the already beautiful painting.
