Baby Face

- by Pat DeVane Burns

This week's theme: Cool For Cats

We don't communicate in the same way, yet we understand each other well enough to share our lives with them and they with us. Some of us live with dogs, some with cats. Some of us share our world with horses or rabbits or birds. Many of us live in the company of a delightful mix of some or all of the above and others not mentioned. We delight in their presence, we miss them when they are gone and our lives are immeasurably enriched by their presence. Over the course of the next month or so, EBSQ’s Art Of The Day will take time to showcase art that celebrates those special animals that are a part our lives.


Art: Baby Face by Artist Pat DeVane Burns
This is a painting of absolutely one of the sweetest cats that has ever owned us! Baby Face was the daughter of Zeke, a huge Maine Coon, and Sassy, a tuxedo sweetie. Baby Face would hook on over my husband's shoulder and nap there forever if he'd let her. Removing her sometimes took two people... one from behind to unhook the claws and the hook-ee to lift. It's a good thing he was wearing his old faded flannel overshirt...those claws were sharp!
