all the colours black

Artwork my own

all the colours black

The cat stares stares
And Stares.

DeepΒ into the souls of me
Lays all my shadows bare

The cat knows,
Knows and Knows.

Every secret hiding there
It knows it knows it doesn't care

It's colours glow on each black hair
It's eyes impassioned, only stare

Glowing eyes intent on me
Hypnotic eyes intent to see

This cat owns
Owns and Owns.

All the hearts and souls of me
My king upon the old settee

Certain it is god above, certain
Certain, Certain.

Of my love.

I am impressed by your Cat Marion & find 'all the colours black' somewhat intriguing .. reminds me of Henry Ford saying you can have one in any colour so long as it is black .. Got me scratching my head a little but then, it is way past my bedtime :) x

That was an excellent saying Neville...here's another....sometimes you've got to look at the world 'wrong' in order to make it look right. Just a bit of fun Nev, don't trouble yourself too much πŸ™ƒπŸ™‚πŸ˜Š

Beautiful Marion, cats do have what is called tapetum lucidum in the backs of their eyes. It is Latin for β€œshining layer” and is why they glow at night. It acts just like a mirror. So I felt your piece was perfect and gave that intimate connection found with our little furry friends. I love your art work my friend please keep painting xxΒ

Wow...never knew that Gwen...there is something both unsettling and comforting about the eyes of a cat isn't there. YeaΒ  I'm continuing to splash the paint around...it kills the thoughts doesn't it...thankyou for being so kind love...I got a lot of practising to do yet...amazing how much you forget!! I used to love doing portraits...don't think I could do one now xxx

Ooh I do hope you one day try a portrait again. I would love to see that 😊 Yes painting really helps you switch off for a while. 

Some believe cats eyes are windows to the fairy world. But there are so many beliefs about cats x

Being Me once told me that they were regarded as God's by the Egyptians and they have never forgotten that πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Lol that’s like that saying about dogs and cats.Β 

A dog looks at a human and thinks β€œwow this human feeds me and gives me shelter, they must be god” 
A cat looks at a human and thinks β€œwow this human feeds me and gives me shelter, I must be god” πŸ˜‚Β
