Purr ONOMATOPOEIA?

 For Illustration Friday challenge, Paint Party Friday & Sunday Sketches. Our Old Kitty was having the best sleep purring in her dreams. At 19 she does a lot of sleeping, purring and telling us what to do!
Here is a picture of the floor we slaved over! Not really wanting to put much furniture in. The floor was all scarred up and much the colour of the window frames. It has a lovely smooth finish now, original fir floors from the 50's. Kitty's favourite spot is on the sheepskin on the sofa.

Your cat is wonderful, Catharine. So simple (or at least it looks it!) and so lovely! And your floor is amazing! Wow! And I LOVE LOVE your house. :)

Thanks for your lovely comment, it is a funny old house. Today I'm trying to sort through more old books and reluctantly fill the room up. Edit edit edit!

Just now getting around to last week's Sunday Sketches participants. What a lovely painting of your cat. Also, I have definite floor envy! My wood floors are in terrible need of a redo. Have a great rest of the week! xo, janice

Hi Catharine, I stumbled upon your blog after searching for "cat illustrations" on Google, and I used this watercolour illustration in my blog post here, I hope it is ok! I really admire your art, and am following you on Tumblr (@cloudfloating). I wish I could paint as delicately as you :)
