Caturday Art and Sunday Selfies for Simchat Torah

Hallo again, Effurrybody!


It is I, Queen Trixie, here again to lead my fellow J-Cats on this weekend's blog hops - the Caturday Art blog hop, hosted by the Wise and Beautiful Athena and her HuMum, Marie, and the Sunday Selfies blog hop, hosted by Our Dear Furriends, the Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet.

I had a hard time choosing between several lovely selfies Mummy helped me take over the Weekend but I finally narrowed it down to two - and here they are.































I like the top one, because of the way the sunlight from the window behind me plays on my fur.

And I like the second one because it shows off my floofy tail and my jewel-like eyes to such purrfection. Also, Mummy used a Soft Light filter, which makes my furs even glossier.

We popped over to LunaPic, as usual, to do the artification. For the furrst picture, We used the Surreal Painting effect, overlaid with the Watercolour art effect, at 30%:





















For the second picture, We used the Frida art effect at 70%:














We don't have much time today to write a long blog, because Mummy is hosting her sister, Auntie N. and brother-in-law, Uncle B. for supper this evening - the eve of Simchat Torah, when Mewish people celebrate the completion of the annual cycle of weekly Torah readings.  You can read more about it in the link Mummy helped Us find. 

To be quite honest, most of the meal is being cooked by Mummy's brother, Uncle D., who is staying with Us again. He volunteered - no, really! He did! But Mummy made lots of salads to go with the meal, so She was busy all meowning and  couldn't come and take dictation for this blog until quite late.

So all We have left to do for now is to put up the blog hop badges:



            


Next week, We hope to be able to give you an update on Milo, the little kitten who Step-Grandma was looking after, as well as news of Intruder Kitty Callicallou and Melba.


Till then, Chag Sameach (חג שמח - A Joyous Festival).


Be well. Be safe. We love you all.

Queen Trixie, your mummy did good with the thumbs for your art work. I purrsonally like the one of you curled up and floofy. Will you be able
to snag a few yummy human treats during the celebration? Precious

Trixie, you ALWAYS look regal and beautiful, and this week is no exception. How nice that uncle D is staying with you again, and cooking the food for Simchat Torah! :)

Your art as always is lovely.

Well, I hate to fly in the face of likes, but the second imaage as well as art, really grabs our eyes. But of course, beauty is there no matter the outward appearance.
May you have a wonderful week, and may your staff enjoy much happiness, delight, and prosperity from the family being nearby.

You chose well. They are both beautiful selfies. I love your art too. I had never seen the Frida effect, very pretty. XO

Beautiful selfies and art, Trixie!

Absolutely meautiful selfies and art Queen Trixie!

CCL Wendy said...

Trixie, you are gorgeous with or without the artification. I agree with you that the first art selfie has a degree more interest due to the window. However, both art pieces do you proud accenting a reddish tone in your voluminous furs.

Meezer's Mews & Terrieristical Woofs said...

Beautiful Trixie! And the art is wonderful, too!
Hope you have a super celebration with your family.
Sounds like a feast is in the making!
