Moths and cats

This one really shook my world. What is it about moths? They have big fluffy antennae that are sensitive to change and vibration and smell, and this faery is riding a moth, and together they are heading for the moon. So many symbols in one place!! I have a couple of these printed onto fabric. I might have to order more. This one really speaks.






Oh Frida! I remember being young and wondering who this woman was, that one could find on tshirts and whatnot, and now I don't wonder who she is, I wonder why I didn't know before! Ha! Especially since I went to Mexico and viewed her works, learned about her relationship with her husband, and understood why she painted so many self portraits. (She had to paint, like I have to quilt). She was unwell in bed a lot, so she painted herself.  And this time her cat also.





And as for cats, this one is like the yin and yang of cats. Warming up on a cold day with pumpkin spice.


I can't stop, gotta sew some more altar cloths to fund the purchase of a new property.
