Today's Featured Cat Lady ACEO... Cat Lover No. 86

Cat Lover No. 86 was first featured on 365 Cat Ladies on October 7, 2009, and introduced us to several different ways to preserve the colorful beauty of autumn leaves:

1. Use a glycerin and water solution
2. Iron between two pieces of wax paper
3. Drying in the microwave
4. Press between the pages of a heavy book

Whichever way you choose, you will find more detailed instructions here: How To Preserve Leaves

My mini watercolor painting of Cat Lover No. 86 is currently available for sale in my Etsy Shop. This ORIGINAL work of art is in ACEO (Art Card Editions and Originals) format, which means that the artwork size is 2.5" x 3.5", the same as a baseball card. ACEOs are a fun and economical way to enjoy and collect original artwork!

It is hand-painted on super-heavy Arches 300-lb. acid-free cold-press watercolor paper with professional quality watercolor paints. It is artist-initialed by me on the front, signed, dated, and titled on back. For information about purchasing this one-of-a-kind original mini painting, click on the image above.
