Folk Art Kitties

I had fun painting these cats on
blocks of wood on a previous post
and decided to paint some more. 

After drawing some cat patterns on wood,
my husband kindly cut them out for
me on our scroll saw and I got to work. 



I haven't signed this one yet
because I'm not sure if I'm finished. 


This one is definitely done
and ready to be varnished. 


I have them it a few different
sizes, so they'll be fun to work on. 

In the meantime I've got a larger
project looming before me that
I'll blog on in a future post. 

For now, it's back to work.

Hoping you're having a 
wonderful week so far!

    As always your work puts a big smile on my face Terri - I love them all. Love the expression especially on the middle cat and that (her?) eyes looking to one side as if she is wondering what is going to happen to her :)
    Happy Easter to you and your family.

    Your kitties are super fun and colourful. Maybe my favourite is the last one, she has a friendly little smile and a gentle look about her.
