    fa: Aha!! Tim’s a pussy.. XD
    Carina: mewr!! (= ^ . ^ =)

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    Skipping Cat reaches out her hand to take Tim’s and pats him gently, saying ‘it’s okay Tim, i have a warrior face to prove i’m fierce, but my heart is warm and loving, i won’t hurt you lil Tim “) ”
    Skipping Cat scoops up Carina in her huge arms, and smiles gently…saying “Hello Carino, my sweet new lil fren…so nice to meet you, thanx for having soft heart and being so happy to be frens” :)

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    thank you Elne, it was a fun one to do….the studio got very messy in the process!

    Hard to describe what I love about this one Karin, but think it’s the sheer craziness and vibrant colours! Love your mixed media image – you’re SOOOOO talented :o)

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    Oh thank you Karen..you are so sweet and kind…it is a crazy one….i never realised before that her face might be a bit scary and warrior like…..she’s rather masculine for a ‘she-kittycat’ i guess…but she is meant to be a bit robotic, or windup-ish….i don’t have a clue why i did any of it..’cept to say it was just fun to see where collage would take me :)

    Once again I ‘d love to see that one for real: I love it when a painting is also 3D:)))

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied

    this was fun, i put it in an exhibition and lots of people liked it, no-one enough to buy it tho!!

  • Cvail73

    Cvail73

    I bet!!
    Oh really? it did not get bought??? well I suppose I’m abit puzzled about what sells and what does not, I’m quite lost to be completely honest!
