One Brick Cat, After Maud Lewis
*Studio Render*
This was a fun project for me to tackle. It is part of a proposal I had sent to
@artgalleryns . I'd love to get one of my kits into the AGNS gift shop in celebration of Maud Lewis!
The fur on the cat, aka 'black wolverine claws' is an unfortunately expensive piece, so this design won't see the light of day (as portrayed), but I really like the look of it... So i thought to share!
Much of what I am working on is locked up behind closed doors, until eventual release dates... I wish I could share more!

Maud Kathleen Lewis (née Dowley; March 7, 1903 – July 30, 1970) was a Canadian folk artist from Nova Scotia.
She lived most of her life in poverty in a small house in Marshalltown, Nova Scotia. She achieved national recognition in 1964 and 1965 for her cheerful paintings of landscapes, animals and flowers, which offer a nostalgic and optimistic vision of her native province.
Several books, plays and films have been produced about her. She remains one of Canada's most celebrated folk artists. Her works are displayed at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, as well as her restored house, whose walls she adorned with her art. Despite her recognition, Lewis never had a museum exhibition, nor was her work collected by art galleries or museum during her lifetime.
