Some Paintings and Charlie’s Report


We’ll have a report from Charlie in just a minute, But first, I’ll show you a few paintings , partly because I fear that my Saturday Critters posts are becoming repetitious. I photograph the same types of animal over and over, and I haven’t been traveling anywhere exotic.

Art at the Mill is starting on April 26. Here are a few pictures from previous years.




The painting of the zebras was affordable, and I brought it home with me. A lot of the work in this venue is out of my price range, so I have to content myself with admiring it on their walls.

Charlie’s Report

ArRoo! That’s what I sang to the owls. I can sing a beautiful howl!

This was not a very exciting week. It rained a lot and Mom was sick on Monday. She still coughs so we don’t do a whole lot. We did visit my friend Sadie yesterday, and that was the highlight of my week, except that Mom left me there for a while to go to the store and I was worried about when she’d come back. Sadie tried to comfort me by licking my face, but that didn’t help. I like to keep an eye on my mom.

We did go to Seven Bends State Park a few times this week. We took very short walks. 



I’ve seen Tripod the cat a few times. He lives across the street and he’s my friend. He walks a little slow because he only has three legs. Here he’s laying in the street, taking a stretch. I like to do that too, but Mom always tells me to get out of the street. 


And I guess that’s it. I hope next week is more exciting. I want to go to the dog park.

  2. Great paintings! I understand how you feel, Charlie. I don't like it when Mum has to go out and leave me alone either.

  4. Hello,
    Cute photos of Charlie. I love all the paintings, the zebras are a favorite. The kitty should find a better place than the street to lay down and stretch. I hope you Mom is back to normal soon. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, enjoy your day and have a great week.

  5. Don’t worry about repeat pictures of the same creatures. You can only photograph those who live where you do, and since you are not especially mobile you are unable to get out into the woodlands and other regions to find the unusual. The familiar is very welcome.

  8. I'm sorry you haven't felt well. I need to learn to make more short hikes and be happy with that. It's nice to have a state park to visit! Beautiful art and fun Charlie news!
