The Challenge Original 11x14 framed painting: $400 Reduced size print matted to fit 11x14 frame: $35 This was loosely inspired by the story from Greek mythology of the riddle of the Sphynx.

No More Mr. Nice Guy Original 8x10 framed painting: SOLD Reduced size print matted to fit 8x10 frame: $25 Once at a cat show, while watching a very pampered Persian get brushed and fluffed and sprayed within an inch of his life, I was struck by the realization that the cat’s perception of himself probably differed greatly from the way his human companion saw him. Cats are, after all, predators...even if the only prey they can catch are catnip mice.
