This is beautiful, but it reminds me of a sad story. A few years back I went to adopt a kitten from the local pound. She was an albino, with beautiful pink eyes. Unfortunately albino cats need sun block when they go outside, otherwise they can develop skin cancer. Sadly just days before I was meant to pick her up she died of cancer. I was heart broken. Though this work reminds me of her, it also reminds me how beautiful she was and for that Nelly, I THANK YOU. This is truly an amazing work of art my friend

The simple painting style gives that lil modern touch so loved of me.

David Holcombe 15 Feb 2008

Such elegant drawings. They are so oriental in their design and feeling. Cats are wonderful, creatures, so devoid of loyalty, however. Your portrait is less disturbing than Ted Williams. And you will live on through your art.

Tabitha Borges 14 Feb 2008

BEAUTIFUL!!!Brilliant artwork,Nelly!!!Fantastic!!!:)

Frank Maguire 11 Feb 2008

I have just discovered that one can eat squirrels, especially when they are dead and, for preference, cooked. Can one eat cats? These two succulent snow cats appear to be very edible but they might cause stomach yowl. Lovely painting Nelly, I bet you know all about cats, how to cook, what wine to have. You must tell me about it.

Chas Sinklier 11 Feb 2008
