This week I’m celebrating the paws and whiskers that keep our lives grounded in both mystery and meaning. To honor our four-legged muses, I’ve paired two works of art and literature that walk the line between playfulness and philosophy:
📖 A rare 1st Edition hardcover of T.S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats—illustrated by the delightfully macabre Edward Gorey. A reminder that even the most ordinary housecat harbors the poetry of the universe.

🎨 My latest henna watercolor painting inspired by Conan Doyle’s Hound of the Baskervilles—where superstition tangles with reason, and a spectral hound prowls the mists of the moor.

As always, I tuck my signature into the linework, a small secret for seekers who look closely—much like the truths hidden in stories and in the animals who share our homes.
✨ Question for you: if your cat or dog were a character in a classic novel, who would they be?
