Mr. Mooney is the cat I got off Craigslist a year or so ago.   I was looking for a Manx, or part-Manx cat.  They are a special kind of breed for sure. 
He is so smart and endlessly curious.
I have been painting a series of Mr. Mooney's dreams.
​

This one above is headed to The House of Orange Gallery in Cannon Beach Oregon.  A cool modern gallery!
​

I painted black stripes on the wallpaper and then cut this into long 5" wide strips.

The idea worked great.   But this was a little, uh, meh.

The next door frame I painted the wallpaper with a more interesting pattern.   I was liking this! 

I painted bright colorful graphics, then cut this into 5" long strips and then cut those strips into sections.  The fun part was about to begin!  I turned all those sections upside down and shuffled them.  Then picked up random pieces and started putting them on the door frame.

I know this is not for everybody, but I really like it!  I am already painting the next one.  :)
