| "Handle With Care" |

| these are just a couple of the cards that I purchased from Deborah I have mailed out the others They came wrapped in that pretty green ribbon! |
When I asked Deborah if I could feature her on Cat Chat today I was delighted that she accepted. I love having the talented people that I feature describe themselves and their work to you... in their OWN words. After all, who knows us better than ourselves?
Without further adieu, I present to you, Deborah Julian!
"Before adopting cats I was strictly a street photographer. But my three playful cats- George, Billy and Sammy-have inspired a second body of work. I love to create whimsical cat images with my fun felines as subjects.
I make cat note cards, art prints and decorative magnets from my original designs . My images reflect my passion for cats, strong color and art history.

| "Chat Noir" |
I make cat note cards, art prints and decorative magnets from my original designs . My images reflect my passion for cats, strong color and art history.
My designs are inspired by my cats' activities. For example, my “Cezanne’s Cats” print was influenced by the way my three boys investigate my table top photo shoot when I am trying to photograph my cards for my online Etsy shop. If Cezanne had my cats he would have had to include them in his Still Lifes.
And of course, "Van Gogh’s Bedroom" shows the typical situation in our small New York City apartment where there is usually no place for my husband and I to sit because the cats have taken all the comfy spots.

Our cats give us a lot of pleasure. My work documents their creativity, genuine sense of fun, and enjoyment of life.

A painting is just a picture without a Cat; then it becomes Art.
Greetings Caren and Cody,
Thank you for featuring Deborah and her beautiful art, while Ms K totally agrees that felines make the best models for any situation.
Thank you for your recent visit to our site and especially words of encouragement.
Warmest regards,
Miss Kitty and Egmont

What neat cat items! Marmie will have to go take a look.
What talent she has. We are very much impressed!

The cards are clever and cute. Cats always insert themselves into whatever is going on, so it all makes perfect sense to me!
