I Imagined What Would Happen If The Subjects Of Famous Paintings Had Cats (52 Pics)
Looking at classical artworks takes me right back to that time; I start daydreaming about that moment with the artist and his subject. What were they talking about? What did the artist leave out? How long was the subject sitting before their adorable cats jumped into their lap for a cuddle?
I created these "reimagined" artworks using my cute cats, and the famous paintings I love and admire. We run a little TNR (trap-neuter-release) program in our neighborhood and kept these four kittens when they were trapped. They were difficult to tame but we fell in love with them as we got to know them!
I hope you enjoy what I came up with! I'm always interested in working with others' pets and classic paintings too!

The cat names really enhanced the titles as well!
Load More Replies...This set of Photoshop-enhanced paintings is brilliant! The compositions are stellar. Most of the paintings are improved by the additions of Moochie and associates.
They most certainly didn't suffer from it, that's for sure!
