I didn't purchase the cats, I saw them awhile ago in an op shop.
I have enough collections going on....thought it best not to start collecting cats hahaha
From the 2 bits I've seen his work looks quite vibrant Smile

I understand about the collections. I probably would have bought the cats coz they are gorgeous, then not known where to put them.
