Hey, you. Yes, you! Haven’t you heard? It’s time for a cat break! These fabulous felines might not break the internet, but they are certainly capable of warming your heart. One can never love too many cats, especially in art. Whatever you’re doing next can wait. Soothe your soul with these furry companions today.

This little tabby is so precious on its pillow, its cuteness must be protected by a strong wood frame! Even the art is undeniably cute sized. It’s the purrfect acrylic miniature piece to get “awws” from admirers at an office desk, a personal study, or even a child’s bedroom.

What do cats ponder in their minds? Are they thinking about snuggle time with their humans, taking over the world, or just taking a nap? Who knows. But there’s one thing we know for sure. This feline is contemplating a cardinal and a candle on a rainy day, and it’s looking mighty adorable in this acrylic painting.

There’s nothing better than gazing at an adorable kitten to melt a bad day away. Well, there may be one thing we managed to think of. Gazing at three adorable kittens! This acrylic painting is based on a real life trio of babies who the artist rescued when they were just a few days old. All of them lived to be happy and healthy!

With fuzzy ears and a peaceful disposition, it’s hard to believe that this little guy will become a ferocious bobcat. But today isn’t that day, so admire him while you can! Better yet, you can enjoy his cute furry self long after he grows up because this is, in fact, actually a gorgeous watercolor painting.

This mischievous group of lion cubs are so endearing, you’ll want to reach out and pet their soft fur. (Disclaimer: it’s not a good idea to pet real wild lions. That’s what the art is for!) We love how the gold frame ushers a warm sunny feeling in this oil on ivorine miniature. What can these young fellas possibly get into? It’s up to the viewer’s imagination.
We hope you enjoyed this cute cat break, brought to you by Seaside Art Gallery’s Animals in Art Show. You’ll feel even better when you purchase artwork that features an animal right now during the month of February. A portion of each purchase helps pets and their humans in need through the local Outer Banks Coastal Humane Society. Now that’s something to smile about!
Like peanut butter and jelly, summer goes hand in hand with maritime voyages. A day on the boat can be as exciting as a personal treasure hunt or as delightful as a simple cruise over shimmering waters.
Nothing beats the sheer delight of a great summer vacation. Saltwater lapping at your feet, the sounds of a pelican flock’s gentle wings, the vibrant colors in the sky and the shoreline.
From its amazing beaches and delicious seafood to its rich history and legendary surfing, the Outer Banks is famous for many things. But did you know that the unique natural beauty of the area inspires a community of artists who call it home?
