" Prima Donna" Siamese cat by Sandra Reeves Cutrer


Ms Bella is a "Prima Donna" (first lady), the second biggest supporter of my painting efforts (my husband Bob being my #1 fan). She is in my studio nearly every day, although she doesn't always stay, mind you. She has bigger things to do when the smell of turps and oils gets a might too strong, or my “inspirational” music, which can be classical all the way to down-home banjo picking, becomes a wee bit too loud for her sensitive ears (she prefers soft country).

When we are outside, in the patio studio, she seems to become a little light headed from the warm sunshine, (or maybe she is being hypnotized by the birds), but I get more vibes towards her approval on certain subjects that I paint (like painting her majesty). Other times it seems she is just becomes frazzled about my long hours of work without some much needed play time with her,where upon she will roll her favorite pink ball at my feet.And then there are just times when she just all out relaxes about the whole long process of making sure that I get my work done. If only our lives were as simple as an indoor, slightly spoiled, and rather demanding feline. But, I love that girl…

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13 (NIV)
