    We had a painting done of our Aki. This was from the picture that used to be my avatar. I think I have shared with you guys this artist before. This is our fifth one he has done for us. All our cats. Of coarse now we have our cat who adopted us. Oh no...
    here is the artists web site http://www.georgwilliams.com/index.htm
    he takes a photo and some info on thier personality and goes with that. We have seen much improvment in his style since he has done stuff for us it is a neat progression. And he is such a nice man! He used to live New orleans but since the storm has moved to Austin tx.

    Sure here they are. Starting with our first one which is the top left. That was our very first cat we had her for 18 years her name was butt Head cause she like to butt up against your head. the 2nd one to the top right was our favorite kitty Niko who was killed by a dog way to young. the the bottom left is Willow she is still with us at 12 and very healthy and a great mouser! And the bottom right is my boy Bo he is the sweetest snuggle bug! And then now Aki she is our youngest. We have had her now though for 5 years.

    Those are all great pictures. I really like how he has captured the personality of each cat. What a great collection.

    I so love these. I remember when you posted them before and I thought then that I would love ones of my two, both of whom have since left me. I still think I need to do this though.

    I drool at his gallery in the French Quarter! I didn't know he left town

    His gallery is terrific to visit, and I've been tempted, but don't know which critter to have done first. Thank you for sharing!

    I feel very lucky that we could get another one. And actually i should give my mother in law the credit. She gave us a money gift at christmas that made it possible.
