Some in the more natural colors, and some in quirkier colors. This is an order that was placed last year of the client's Siamese cats. She chose the first one done in their natural colors. I still have the funky blue one left, which was actually my favorite.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5343143478214327890-5881390873865666498?l=lindenlifelines.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Holly Lindenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03749511028786617295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343143478214327890.post-41946335636506713922009-11-08T16:54:00.000-08:002009-11-08T19:35:51.411-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_apDeH0RtLdc/SvdpaffpmzI/AAAAAAAAAak/P7c8sCm97H8/s1600-h/scan0001.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 233px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_apDeH0RtLdc/SvdpaffpmzI/AAAAAAAAAak/P7c8sCm97H8/s320/scan0001.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401902181905963826" /></a>So this is my art blog.
