Gillian has now finished my picture of Amber - it is fantastic but I'm an imbecile who has no idea how to add it to this thread - just wanted those of you who are thinking of getting her to do a picture for you that I am another satisfied customer - the pictures she had to work from were awful as well!

I'm not in a rush but it would be nice!  and I'd rather give the money to a purrs peep than not so she'd better start the waiting list!!  I think Amber is going to be the hardest my other three all sit still for photos for a start and are more, lets say, conventional looking!

I may be interested in getting a portrait of my boy Max, can you drop me a pm at some point with a note of your charges, and whether of course its possible to do a good pic of a pure black cat  :)

Yes its possible - with very good photos  ;) - will pm you.

I too would be interested in charges, I'd love a portrait of my 2

Will pm you too!

tbh I didn't think it would be possible to do amber because she is a brindle torti with a crazy face but Gillian is

................Gillian is? waiting with baited breath here Dawn LOL!  ;D

And this himself... !

With his eyes closed as usual then Sharon?!!  ;)

Sharon gave me lots of great pics to work from, but very few of them had Leo with his eyes open - and even then, not open wide - so went with the 'Leo Look' as it were LOL! She has had to wait nearly a year for this  :innocent: - well it hasnt been a very good year with many worries. So pleased you like it Sharon.
