Postscript to Cat Contours post

Forgot to mention in yesterday's post that if you love cats and you love good pastels, do check out the book Painting Cats by Deborah Dewit Marchant. Besides the wonderful art (I just double-checked and it's actually pastels and oils; they're virtually indistinguishable), there's some very good writing by the author, some very moving stories of cats in her life, and an intro and poetry by Marge Piercy, one of my favorite contemporary poets who often writes about cats. I just stumbled upon this book by accident, and found it really lovely.
