yes, kittys, as in more than one...look inside her basket and you will see two smiling cheshire kittens, and the proud papa peeking from behind her dress. What the heck, I have painted so many girls over the years carrying their tiny pets, so why shouldn't Alice have some too?
Sorry for the poor picture, I had to photograph it because my stupid scanner is a fraction of an inch too short.
If you haven't worked on wood, you don't know what you are missing! I love woodburning, and painting goes on so much smoother than on canvas. I have seen some artists work on watercolor paper, but I have found it difficult to paint on paper. The brush seems to drag, and feels dry all the time. I will have to do a bit of research to see how to get around this.
I know a lot of you love art supplies just like me, have you heard of Pan pastels? Oh my goodness, I really want these! I want them all! they are so pricey though...Click on the 'techniques' and check out the video. Smooth like butter! Right now I have a shelf full of various pastels, which I have rarely used, and yet, a new product shows up and I'm dreaming about it. No wonder I'm running out of room, lol!

Alice looks great and I totally spotted the family of cats.
Thank you for your advice. It is good.

Your artwork is beautiful - this painting is just too cute for words.
Oh, I love your Alice and her pets. Very nice.
So cute Pink :) I love all the sweet details you have on all of your paintings. I'm not one to work in pastels just yet--but the pan pastels look fun!
Oh, My Gosh, what a beautiful Alice! You have inspired me to do a Wonderland piece as well. She's amazing!

SO CUTE! I love those kitties and of course Alice should have a basket of them!
Wood is my favorite surface to paint, though I don't paint all that often. But it does feel nice, the way the paint is so smooth as it goes on!
what a sweet Alice....just adorable :)
I love this!
this is so wonderful - i love Alice!
So much art everyday! Your blog is a great find!
