Old house and new friends
Do you remember last week I mentioned the eclectic old collector who collects old houses? This is a close-up one of the old lamps on and old house - it has a lot of nice shadows and textures for Shadow Shots and Scenic Sunday!
The image on the right is a fiber portrait created by me. The subject is a Siamese kitty that join a friend's family in the last year. I started the portrait by making a sketch on paper, using color pencil to help me remember the colors of the final artwork. Then using the drawing as a template I create the art work using only fabric and thread. This is my contribution to Camera Critters!

Your work is so gorgeous! Lovely kitty!
A super shadow shot ..... and I love seeing your fibre portraits as well!
That looks like a really charming old house. I would not mind living in something with so much character.

The detailing on the old house, especially the lamp, is so ornate and artistic - nobody styles and builds such beauty these days,,,
This kitty shows cute and cattitude at the same time. Wonderful art!
