hee hee... its been driving me crazy! I thought for sure you'd be peeking through the house looking for a birthday gift! So glad you were surprised. It was all Charlie's idea and all Charlie's gift!
I also want to smack you! I needed to find out what color his yes were (couldn't tell from the photos) so I started the thread about eye color. Guess who did NOT fill out the poll and reply? :D :p
***For future notice to all PTers: ANY TIME I start a thread about eye color, who's a favorite cat, etc.... I am LOOKING for information about a cat to do a surprise portrait for someone!*** LOL
Happy Birthday dear friend!
Aaawww- that's gorgeous:D What a great portrait.
Kim couldn't you sneak in Jen's house and check Monte's eyes?
What a wonderful present!! That is absolutely beautiful!!
What a beautiful present! You deserve the best present ever, and you got it!
Willie:)
STUNNING!!!!!
Kim you do, do GREAT work! What a lovely gift for someone and Jen, your husband is so cleaver to have thought of that. That is one of those priceless, cherished gifts that will always mean so much to you.
Beautiful.
Wow, this is again a wonderful portrait! And such a great present!:cool:
Well, Kim, his eyes look perfect to me. I just couldn't see myself answering that thread and going around the house (with pen and paper) noting all 15 cats' eye colors. :p (LOL)
Jen,
Happy Birthday girl!! What a wonderful gift!
What a wonderful gift and surprise! You have to feel quite honored to have such a thoughtful husband and friend!
Excellent, it is beautiful!
Jen, that's one down and 14 or 15 to do?
You'll have a gallery.:eek: :p
What a fantastic gift! Kim has captured Monte perfectly. WOW :eek:
I know, Now I need the rest done. Can't single out just one, now can I???Quote:

How stunning!! The ressemblance with Monte is perfect, it even looks like a picture!! Wow, Kim, you have such a great talent!
what a great idea Charlie had!!
Happy birthday, Jen! May today bring you more wonderful things than you could possibly imagine!!! The portrait is simply beautiful, what a wonderful and thoughtful gift!!!!!
What an awesome gift! It is stunning, and I love the special matting as well! Great job once again, Catnapper!;)
What a beautiful job you did! That portrait is just amazing. How wonderful to have a talent like that!!
I was waiting for someone to mention the matting without me stating it. Isn't it just the greatest! WOW!! That alone would take me 15 years to do correctly. It's fantastic!Quote:

LOL... I cut the oval as an experiment. Felt it closed in the bottom of the material too much, so cut a square inside the oval. Simple mat actually, but isn't it cool looking? :)
Jen SHOULD feel honored though... I HATE cutting oval mats!
ahhh!!! What a terrific happy birthday gift!! I really like the black and white on green:) And - a surprise is all the more fun!!
It's BEAUTIFUL, Kim! What a GREAT present!!!!!!! You are such a GREAT artist!!!!!!!! :D
It's a beautiful present Jen!:D
( I even got a sneak peek at it and it was hard to keep my mouth shut about it but I did!);)
I hope Biddy is next on your list of cats to have his portrait done.:)
Great job Kim! :D
I love the mat, it is a pain to cut mats in anything but a straight line.
Wow! What a beautiful birthday gift.:D Kim, you're so talented.:)
Wow, that is just gorgeous! Such a beautiful kitty! :)
OMG!!! Oh Jen that is a wonderful wonderful gift! Catnapper that is just stunning! I bet it was hard to do a white cat wasn't it?
Jen I have to say that Charlie and Kim came together to give you a very special Birthday present.
Happy Birthday again Jen! :) :) :)
WOW, what a gorgeous birthday present Jen. What a beautiful work of art Kim.
Do you just love those sneaky birthday presents. :D
Just convince your husband that you have 15 Birthdays a year.Quote:
