New in Feline Artwork, Bandit Will Steal Your Heart

"Bandit", pastel, 18" x 14", 2004 © Bernadette E. Kazmarski

SOMETIMES WE DON’T realize until years later that a series of odd circumstances has an intention beyond our control; often this involves the entry of one of our most cherished animal companions into the sphere of our life, and our entry into theirs. ~~~ One of the Great Rescues families, Bandit is one of my […]

Sophie Keeps an Eye on Things in Your Garden

Garden Flag, Sophie Keeps an Eye on Things

Sophie could use any prop to dramatic effect, and the lace curtains were her favorite. Of course, you can’t see her. But if you look closely you might see a cat’s face through the lace that might have Sophie’s big green eyes with heavy eye-liner, and her tabby babushka and outlined nose. These “garden flags” […]

New Feline Keepsake Boxes

It’s been another few creative days in the studio with my Creative Cats! A stack of blank keepsake boxes were calling my name and asking to be decorated. They are all different sizes and shapes and I divided the group between feline themes and flower themes. Here are those feline inspirations! I choose a variety […]

Commissioned Portrait: Henry, in Two Styles

I was commissioned to do a portrait of a beloved family and community cat for the holidays—twice. Often I’ll make prints of a portrait to share with family and friends of the original recipient, but in this case my commissioner wanted to give one portrait to Henry’s family, and also have one for herself. She […]

Colorful Kitties Print or Note Cards

The original artwork for "Colorful Kitties".

This note card was designed from one of my daily sketches and just lends itself to a variety of themes—friendship, thank you, thinking of you, even an invitation to an event. This card is 5.5″ x 4.25″ and printed on 100# acid-free uncoated cover stock, blank inside. They come with 70 lb. opaque acid-free envelopes […]

Back to Front Clay Pendant

This small pendant is made of air-dry clay with a print of my sketch “Back to Front” impressed in the clay and finished with a gloss varnish. I have three different shapes with a little variation in size from 1″ to 1.5″, and comes with three choices of cord. Pendant style and cord style are […]

Brighten Up That Dreary Winter Garden

I love the earth tones of winter, all the living things lying in wait for warmer temperatures and longer days, but even with that I like to add some color to my front yard. From my “Cats After van Gogh” series of oil pastel sketches, this garden flag has “Two Cats After van Gogh” on […]

February Feline Art and Desktop Calendar: “Darling Clementine”

To be perfectly honest, I featured this painting as a monthly desktop calendar in January 2013. I’ve been thinking a lot about Namir lately and the time when I painted this watercolor. I decided that if you saw and downloaded this desktop calendar four years ago and still remember it, you probably like it, and […]

Tiffany and Rags, #30in30, Day 18

The painting for "Merriment, Mayhem and Meows".

This is a little confusing for me because I’m skipping book number 20 in this series, and this is the cover for book number 21. I’m counting the cover painting I did as part of my “30 Paintings in 30 Days” painting, for day 18, so up we go with these two kitties and their […]
