Welcome to The Cranky Cat Collection™!
Cats. Yes they’re cute and fuzzy but there’s more to the story than that. There are claws … and then there’s that look on their face: they’re cranky. Who knows why? They aren’t saying.
I paint cats. This is where you can get my artwork — in matted prints and note cards, on ceramic tiles, and every year, a calendar. Welcome!

I’m a self-taught artist who started painting at age forty. I feel like every painting is an experiment and I never know what the result will be ’til the end.
People often ask how the Cranky Cat Collection™ started. It mainly came from having four cats and observing their interactions. I love that flattened ear thing they do when they’re angry, or stalking and trying to be invisible.
