Description Illustration for an upcoming Realms of Fantasy Magazine story entitled "Impractical Cats"

I sat down at my desk ready to start brainstorming for this piece. I had pulled out my sketchpad and was staring at the blank page, when from the corner of my eye I saw slender shapes dart out from behind the wall.

My friendly neighborhood strays decided to make a timely appearance and spent the next few minutes stalking the steps in front of my window, climbing up the wall and then leaping back down, and in general being the perfect models for this piece.

Hello,

Bu accident I came across your profile and was imediately stuned by your work, it is breathtaking and fragile and just incredible.

I am a musician and have a band and am currently working on a new project that will be named Cocoon Noir including several tracks that are very alternative, including progressive rock, ambiental, jazz, sounds of the wind and sahara and it is also zodiac related in many songs.

I would love to to have a CD cover drawed by you, I would pay ofc when my Album is finished.

Please tell me what you think: cocoonoir@gmail.com

Your gallery is absolutely stunning. ^_^ I love everything in it; your pieces have such a fantastic, magical quality to them, like anything is possible. Your many details and ideas make them even more wonderful.

In this one, I especially enjoy the clouds and all their layers.

Your work is fantastic! Please keep it up!

Amazing work I have no idea how you can make clouds and effects like that with watercolors. I really like those circle effects you have in most of your paintings, do you explain how you do them in your book "Dreamscapes"?

I would SO like to have your art as wallpaper on my wall - in a XXXXXXXL-version! the whole wall with just ONE of your works (this one I like best 'till now) I have to complete. like these mega-wallpapers in the 70's/80's... would just be sitting there and daydreaming!

Your talent makes my paintbrush blush! Lythe little felines with a cat-n-mouse game going on in a playground of clouds. Lovely and captured the cat essence really well.
