Art: The Cheshire Cat by Artist Patience
"...The Cheshire Cat..."


My entry for this month's Nibblefest Art Contest (NFAC) (~the theme for Semptember being 'Cats') is an original acrylic painting on a 2-piece 8" x 9" wooden cat-shaped plaque (with the separate 'cat head' glued firmly in place -- see additional pics to view the 3-D effect).   My  'Cheshire Cat' is signed on the front, has painted sides, and is ready to hang.

"....I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat,  "We're all mad here.  I'm mad.  You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" asked Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here...."



...So says the infamous and much beloved character, The Cheshire Cat, via what must be one of his best known quotes from the treasured classic, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland".   The Cheshire Cat, known for his mischievousness, often vexes Alice with his confusing conversation.  He both entertains and befuddles her, all while continuously flashing his highly distinctive, "ear-to-ear" grin.  Who can resist that tricksy, unnerving little smile....? :-D
