Commissioned Portraits: Samantha, and Honey, Tommy and Andy

"Samantha", pastel, 23" x 19", 1994 © Bernadette E. Kazmarski

THERE HAS NOT been another kitty since Samantha, though her rescuer had loved and rescued cats nearly all her life. Sometimes a memory is too dear, and time must pass before the heart is ready for another love. In this case it was the human who was rescued just as much as the feline, and […]

Of the Rain and Giuseppe, Cards and Prints

“Of the Rain and Giuseppe” is one of a series of photos I took of Giuseppe looking out the window at the rain and have always thought they’d be able to convey a variety of messages as photo cards, each of which can be found in my Feline Photo Greeting Cards gallery, and also attractive […]

Compositions in Black and Green, Cards and Prints

This very photo was the inspiration for the set of greeting cards, Compositions in Black and Green, and gave me a focus for the whole series of images which I also published as a calendar in 2013 and 2014, taken on this date in 2011. I loved the look of this image as soon as […]

March Featured Artwork and Desktop Calendar: “Blending”

“Blending”, watercolor, 6″ x 9″ © Bernadette E. Kazmarski

I have to confess, I have been waiting to use this painting as a daily calendar and the decision has been difficult because the colors and theme fit into any season. I always match the art to the seasonal light and color, but while this could indeed coordinate with any season it was my favorite […]

My Feline- and Nature-themed Stuff at "The Outlet Barn"

So who would think a drafty old unheated honest-to-God barn from a long-time farm would be a hot spot for unique art and decorative items? The Outlet Barn Garden and Art Center has been in business in this very same old barn for the past 20 years, with a list of loyal customers and new […]

It's Tortie Girls Time!

The gold and orange and yellow of tortoiseshell cats may seem more of an autumn theme, but for me those bright colors always meant June and sunshine. I love to welcome the summer with my tortie girls Cookie and Kelly on as many items as I can make. Not everyone has the room for, or […]

Little Wood-mounted Photos and Sketches

It’s when I see Mimi like this, relaxed, quietly happy by a sunny window, breeze ruffling her ears, her delicate features so lovely with the lace curtain, that I deeply sense she and I are both having a moment of appreciation for her life here, indoors, spayed, well-fed; often after one of these moments she […]

Two New Garden Flag Designs for Spring and Summer

It’s time for a little spring and summer! Here are two new garden flag designs I’m happy to introduce. These will unfortunately be the last two garden flags I introduce for a while. I have more on that subject after the descriptions of these two pretty flags. Sophie Keeps an Eye on Things Each flag […]

"Winter Afternoon" Prints and Gift Items

Look closely and you’ll see four cats in this sketch. Smokie, Bella, Bean and Mewsette spent the entire long, quiet afternoon on the wool afghan. The light caught each of their coats in different tones and textures: Smokie at the top left is very mocha, and in the top right Bella is only shades of […]
