The Cats of Elizabeth Blackadder

Well, Norman and I just love these paintings....
Dame Elizabeth Blackadder RA was born on 24 September 1931 in Falkirk, Stirlingshire, Scotland, United Kingdom. She trained at Edinburgh University and Edinburgh College of Art (ECA).
Her early work was influenced by the Scottist Colourist Joseph Crawhall and her teacher, William Gillies. In 1954 she travelled to Yugoslavia, Greece and Italy after receiving the Carnegie Travelling Scholarship.
She still travels widely and exhibits throughout the world. From 1956 to 1986 she taught at ECA.
Her signature subjects include landscapes, cats, flowers, still-lifes and portraits.

Hello folks & moggies,
My name is George, and my human has finally decided to take the plunge and put my picture up here on Moggyblog. Well, here it is and I hope you like it? As you can see they just caught me having a lovely rest on the living room carpet. Normally I'd be out the back keeping busy.
I have been at my new place just over a year now and am doing very well after my previous owner's girlfriend threw me out which was quite stressful as you can imagine. I have a lovely garden to roam around in and am very happy here - sometimes I bring my human a few little gifts from the garden which she does not like, no idea why - I spend ages choosing them for her.
Anyway, Have a lovely weekend,
Yours sincerely,
G
