CATURDAY ART

Maggy in the Window

In our Florida home, Maggy loved to sit on the master bathroom window ledge.
The window was glass-block with soft reflected light from the wooded area outside, 
it was a warm and welcoming spot for a kitty.
The ledge held some decorative manatee, pelican and other water bird figures 
native to Florida ~ here Maggy was photographed in that setting.  

The photo was then enhanced with Photoshop to both sharpen 
some details (such as whiskers) and soften other details.  
The background behind Maggy was tinted soft yellow-green to match 
some of the natural woodsy-light that was coming in, 
and the plastic-wrap tool was used to enhance the glass block.

  8. Wow. Only an artist would know how to use all those tools to make such a lovely photo of a pretty kitty girl. I'm also amazed a cat curled up where breakable things were displayed and they were not pushed off into the floor. Good for you, sweet Maggy. I know some kitties that should take lessons from you!
