This is a pencil drawing of my cat Michelangelo. He loves laying in the window seat and taking in the sun.
I had enter this drawing in the Newburyport Art Association Members Winter Juried Show 2005 - Part 1- Juror: Rebecca Reynolds.At this exhibit, I was the recipient of the Best Drawing Award and this is the comment from the juror:
"Even the staunchest dog person would find it hard not to love this feline. Siudut has perfectly captured the character and gentle soul of this beloved pet." And with her comment Rebecca Reynolds captured my intent, exactly. Well I am that “staunchest dog lover”...we own three Yorkshires, but there is plenty of love for gentle Michelangelo! And there is plenty of love for our other cat, Leonardo a year older than his brother.
We adopted Michelangelo eleven years ago, unfortunately at this time he is dealing with feline diabetes. It has been hard for a while to see him suffer at the onset of the disease. Fortunately, with medication-he requires two daily shots of insulin- he is back to normal.
Jim found a special kitty box made especially for diabetic cats,"The Smart Box” it is so great and if you need information about the box contact us.
To all the pets we love and call family, Cheers!!
