Well, as you can see, I am the stable soul to whom all turn for solace and strength. I also make a nice head rest, haha.
It is almost zero here, that’s with a C, not an F, Celsius, whatever that is, but mostly it’s COLD and fortunately we have a little fireplace in front of which I hang out of an evening.
Mama, too. Just wanted to put in a picture of how my furry little body keeps everyone comfortable and sane. Sort of. Around here, that word needs examination, haha.
Yesterday, a lovely friend of ours who was an art director helped mama sort out her drawings for the May expo, and there are all sorts of subjects in the illustrations and after he was gone, mama had a ‘eureka’, whatever that is, and thought, HEY, Mya’s maman is doing animal portraits, mostly doggies and mama is doing kitties so why not call the show “Chats et Chiens’ or ‘Chiens et Chats’, whichever comes first? Dogs and cats in English. Or Cats and Dogs, whatever works.
So, it was a productive day and now the work starts: DRAWING MORE, matting all of them, putting hangers on the backs, naming them, and so and so forth.
BUT, one thing is sure. Mama has over 3000 photos to draw from and guess who is the model, haha? One guess per customer.
I have to keep my figure to be mama’s model. First streeeetch, stretch, and then
one-two, one-two, obliques….waist not, want not, haha.
Wow, your mama is going to have a difficult time choosing. But we’re sure you’ll help…right, Loulou?
Oh, yeah….
LouLou you are a wonderful model!!! We are in the middle of a major snowstorm want to visit? lol
NO, NO, thank you anyway. My snow suit is at the cleaners…
Loulou, you are the PERFECT model and am excited about seeing the Loulou art series. They will be flying off the walls (hopefully not by the voleurs!!) – can’t wait to see!!!!!
Well, let’s just say mama is attempting to MAYBE start as soon as she gets her act together to sketch and maybe even paint as soon as she lays out he colors and fills her pen and all that stuff you do when you are attempting to plunge. Will keep you posted.
In actual fact, I have THREE kitties. Until recently I had four but my lovely blue-eyed Chocolat passed away in October.
I wish there were more of us in favour of sterilization and castration.
Oh, I remember Chocolate’s demise. I’m so sorry for your loss, but how nice to have three. Yes, if kitties could be wrangled and fixed, the world would certainly be better.
A lovely sight, Loulou. You, your Mama, the fire, comfort and peace.
On Cats and Dogs or the other way round: of two people who keep bickering, we say “ils sont comme chien et chat” (not chat et chien).
At home though, to my utter relief, my two doggies “filent le parfait amour” with Réglisse, my tuxie cat.
Oh, to have two doggies and a chat. But we have no room for that. Still, I think Loulou gets a bit lonesome at times, even whilst being showered with affection all day long!
You are a purr-fect lil’ muse for your momma. And those poses of yours should warm up even the coldest of days with their cuteness. XOXO
The stretch pictures gave me a good laugh. Thank you, giver of solace and strength 🙂
We all need to stretch our souls, that’s for sure.
Guess your mama has a lot of work ahead of her. And you too. You need to pace her and make sure she gets enough rest so she doesn’t get sick. We’re happy for her!
Oh, I’ll pose and pose and hope she takes advantage! Otherwise, I’m going under the bed. That’ll show her.
We can’t wait to see Mama’s portfolio !
Well, she hadn’t thought to put any on my blog but maybe she will…I’ll ask.
