Here’s the finished Abyssinian cat portrait with an alphabet pattern background – reflecting my thoughts of multi-lingual book readers, alphabetic “framing” of thoughts and… well, if you look at my last several blog posts you’ll see my thinking as I’ve worked on this one.
It’s titled “Alpha Betty” and is 20 x 24 inches.
I’m particularly pleased with how the alphabet “shows through” subtly all over this piece with varying degrees of transparency or opacity – like our varying degrees of awareness of the linguistic framing of our thoughts.

Am I imagining a nod to Sue Grafton’s alphabet mystery series? Regardless, I love your literary cat.
Absolutely correct Susanne!!! How very sharp of you to see my nod to Sue Grafton! Thank you so much for your comment – made my day!
I love how this piece turned out!
Thank you so much!!
