This is what we are getting with our tax rebate!

We have 4 painting of all the cat's we have or had. and we need one for our newest memeber Aki. And what we have left over is going into saving. PLEASE visit this website. He is amazing! Like I said we have 4 and have been collecting them now for about 12 years. I can post pictures of ours if anyone wants to see them.
This guy used to work for disney a long time ago and is much happier doing these. We found him on a trip to new Orleans. Tell me these are not wonderful! you send him Photo's and something about thier personality and he takes it from there.

Oooh, Brandi, those pictures are such fun!Aren't they! I just love him and the one's we get are always a surprise!

[snapdragen]

I'd like to see your pictures brandi. May I ask, how much does one of these cost?

[Brandi]

They are about 450.00 a piece and worth every penny! It is the first thing anyone notices when they walk into our house. The cat at the top left was our cat Butt head we had her for 18 years. She was our first cat and a complete angel! the top left was Niko we had him for 10 year he was the best boy unfortunatly he was killed by a small pack of dogs (broke my heart for a year and my dh's, I have never seen him cry so hard as when we lost him).
The bottm left is my favorite painting of our cat Willow. She is a very spunky 11 year old. She is slightly ferel but does a good job keeping unwanted critter's away. And the bottm right my my boy Bo. He is now 5 years old and a rescued abused kitty who loves us to peices. He is wonderful. So now we are missing Aki which is the kitty in my avatar. As a matter of fact I want to send him that picture.
Oh a note on Bo's picture. We thought he looked a bit big in the painting. It turns out that he ended up being that big. And the one of Niko in actuallu a split personality picture. If you cover one side he looks like the sweet boy he was when he was insdie with us the other half is the tiger in him when he was outside.

Look at the character in each painting! :D

[Brandi]

They truely make me smile every time I look at them. And it is a great memory of very cherished friends!
When you order one and get it in the mail, opening the box is such a huge surprise cause you have no idea what it is going to look like. I do always say what color back grounds he has already done so he can do a different one each time. And he is a super neat artist who lives in New Orleans with he's two girls who he is putting through scholl right now. I am glad I could share these! Surprised I haven't shared them sooner with all of you.
Oh I have Bo as my back drop on my computer and dh has Willows on his. So when we are away we still get to look at them.

Brandi, thank you SO much for sharing this! I want to immortalize my bunny with a portrait and I think this artist is the one. I LOVE the personality he gives them all (I'm also a huge Disney fan and can sort of see that style in his work).
