It gives me great joy when I have the pleasure of experiencing bits of my wild imagination materialize before my eyes! As you may know, I have this fascination with placing conical party hats on the heads of my papier mache black cats. I know I am not the only artist with this urge to whimsify (if that's a word) the 4-legged creature companions we share this planet with. But, it is something I cannot resist! In fact, I just found myself making a mini party hat for my black cat, Jack! He is really a dear as you will see, and so, so kind to permit me to play out my silly fantasy. We had quite the chuckle as I dressed him for the occasion. He patiently posed on an old stool as we snapped shot after shot in utter amazement at his lack of concern. Perhaps, I am less of a loon than I had initially thought, for I have discovered that black cats truly do wear party hats! CHEERS to that, and may you have a purrrfectly HAPPY HALLOWEEN! ~ ENJOY ~ Johanna :-)
* Oh, look at that little dear in all his Halloween cheer...
* Picture purrrrrfect poser.....
* Loving that party hat profile.... utter cuteness!

Have A Hauntingly Fun Birthday Today Johanna & A Wonderful Halloween!!!
Jack is adorable & such a patient kitty to accommodate your Halloween photo shoot. I've been trying all morning to get my black cat Magick to wear his Wizard Hat & try to sniff out my Blogspot Halloween Giveaway Winner. He just keeps running around the house & hiding in places I can't reach him... LOL
I'll keep after him, after all he gets more catnip when he chooses the winner...
XOXOs, Lyndy & Magick
P.S. The winner will posted after the stroke of Midnight tonight...
Love the pictures they are a hoot. Have a Happy Birthday Johanna. All the best, Len.
Happy birthday to you and to Jack! Looks like you are both having a good time (he in the hat and you with the camera!). Many happy returns! Theresa
What a handsome fellow! He reminds me of my uncle Tamaqua!
Happy Birthday to you, dearest Johanna. Thanks for brightening all of our lives with your whimsy... and enlivening our various magazine photographs with your artwork! Your talent is prodigious. Jack ain't so shabby either. What an adorable kitty, kitty! BTW, can you translate the Russian entry for us?
Ciao & Happy Halloween!
Thank you all :) I truly wish you a purrrfect Halloween!.... And, I knew you'd get a kick out of my latest pics of Jack!!
As for the Russian entry... I looked it up and found this translation:
"It is beautiful! What tomcat is calm. It does love holidays and details? Your creation inspires me."
How fun to that a photo or an image of my art can inspire someone on the other side of the globe! It's magical!
xoxo,
Johanna
Awesome photos of your precious Jack!
Happy Halloween Birthday!
absolutely enchanting!
I wish my pet would let me dress him up in fun accessories. Alas, no such luck.
Happy Hallowe'en!
Whimsify... a perfectly good word in my opinion! What an awesome fellow to pose so nicely. Don't you wish you could know what he thinks of this?
Hope you had a wonderfully magical birthday!
You and JP look so cute!
That last picture of Jack made me giggle!
These photos are killing me - too funny!!! Thank you:)
Love his look~you know that one...how long do I have to sit here with this hat on my head look~ Too cute!!!
Lori
Johanna - these made me lol! He's so Handsome.. even as he glares at the camera! (I can't get my black kitty to wear a hat, darn.)
Happy Halloween! :)
Brenda
Jack looks adorable in his party hat, although in that last photo he looks as if to say, 'can we take this off now'? lol
I could have put a hat on my cat Bill, but not on my current Pantera.
And yes, I think all artists have at least some urge for whimsy. :-)
