Description: Another in the series of Pride cats - I'm continuing to work on adding more flags!

Description: Inspired by my own constant forgetfulness and inability to remember that NSAIDs exist and can be helpful.

Description: A black cat luxuriating in cuddling on a bi pride flag, claws extended to make lil queer biscuits.

Description: From a photo of my boy Mooch luxuriating in a pile of fluffy comforter.

Description: A commission for a friend who requested the flag be included, but now I obviously need to do a whole range of kitties snuggling in different Pride flags.

Description: Playing with drawings again - eventually I'll finish the realistic painting of this very beautiful calico girl, but I was in the mood for crazy detail and colour.

Description: This was the result of an incorrect scanner setting AND I LOVE IT.

Description: Gracie the cat; her owner requested that she be in a monochrome, sepia sort of scheme and I got inspired to add the lacework behind her.

Description: Another commission of a very sweet boy who reminds me of my past kitty Patrick.

Description: Since I had to trace this over to larger paper for the realistic painting (to keep it frameable) I was left with a spare original drawing just begging to be played with. Space Cats!

Description: Baby Wanda, being very affronted by having to wear the cone of shame after she got spayed, but unwilling to stop trying to lick her belly.

Description: From a photo I took of Mooch on our last vet visit - he decided the best hiding plan was to camouflage himself among the displays.

Description: My first commission - a lovely family group.

Description: You either know the road sign or this won't mean anything to you at all.

Description: From an actual photo of a kitten taking full advantage of a garden gnome as a comfy chill out spot. Thanks to P for sharing your beautiful boy!

Description: A watercolor and gel pen painting, from a friend's photo of her gorgeous snowshoe Himalayan. The text was created with an iron on transfer.

Description: Originally painted for a coworker - the wariest cat who ever bolted.

Description: A friend's sweet cats - the little one is only tiny compared to his CHUNGUS of a brother. I've also been calling this 'The Mouse and the Orca' but figured that would be confusing.

Description: Painted as a gift for her family

Description: Skippy was my parents' cat - he adored my dad, tolerated my mom and I, and just plain hated everyone else. An adorable curmudgeon.

Description: Painted this for a friend who's a very loving cat dad to the clowder - then I thought they looked like an album cover and I, at least, need them on a t-shirt.

Description: The princes and princesses fighting their way to Sleeping Beauty's castle.

Description: Tattercoats and the mysterious gooseherd, on the road to triumph.

Description: Cinderella being blessed by her mother's spirit through the tree that grew on her grave.

Description: The virtuous daughter being sent back into the world by Mother Holle, covered in gold for her kindness and goodness.

Description: A reawakening, a resurrection, and a second chance.

Description: Riding into mystery and adventure on a bear who's actually a prince feels like a win to me.

Description: Beauty unsure which answer to give as the Beast asks her to marry him once more.

Description: She's of nature and apart from it, in the water and out, balanced between order and wildness.

Description: There's really no way I could NOT use Rapunzel for this card.

Description: Hansel & Gretel are headed for trouble here.

Description: It's a kind of death and also a new life - the little mermaid has refused to sacrifice others for her own safety, and is turning into sea foam and then a spirit of the air.

Description: “Don’t cut off my head!” said Karin, “for then I could not repent of my sin. But cut off my feet with the red shoes.”

Description: Real strength is two little girls playing with a bear (who's secretly a prince, but they don't know that, so it doesn't count).

Description: She turns up in many stories. Sometimes she helps, but she demands utter loyalty and devotion in return. She can be rigid and demanding but also a force for good. Also, sometimes she's a giant lizard in a crown.

Description: The moment when the princess and the frog arrive at a deal, to be carried out by both sides. She wants her ball back; he wants to eat off her plate and sleep in her bed. It's weird.
