purple ace

purple ace, originally uploaded by marcofrey.

i painted this for some good friends. they had asked for something that would represent a particular situation and they gave me 3 colors. the rest was up to me. here's how i interpret the images:
the rectangular purple spiral could be an ace bandage as viewed from above, a window, or a footboard of a bed.
the strange purple figure is either a cat or a foot sticking out from under the covers.
next to the cat/foot: flowers
the bird doesn't represent anything and is there for fun and to balance the rest of the painting.
the stripes at the bottom could be a comforter on a bed.
everything else is just color.
enjoy.

i love little pussy

i love little pussy, originally uploaded by marcofrey.

this painting of cats was named after the old nursery rhyme:
i love little pussy
her coat is so warm,
and if i don't hurt her
she'll do me no harm.
so i'll not pull her tail,
nor drive her away
but pussy and i
very gently will play.
enjoy.
