Creative Cat Wednesday: Henry V Paper Bag Art
Henry was very busy creating last night...he really dives into his art work...he likes putting his whole self into his creations, as you can see here, as he busily tears paper with his teeth, (no scissors for Henry)...no, he likes the raw edged unfinished look using recycled brown paper grocery bags. He is not at all bothered by the mess left on the floor, in fact he is rather oblivious to it so absorbed is he with his paper bag art! But you can believe me when I say those scraps will eventually make it into a next art work. Henry is very much into living GREEN.

I can see Henry has been hanging out with you way too long. lol I enlarged the collage and these photos are so adorable of his creative activity.
ReplyDeleteHe is perfect for Animal Wednesday!
HAW
PS, the verification word starts with cat! How did you do THAT?
How adorable is this cat!!! Henry is a natural. :))
ReplyDeletehenry is very handsome...and talented!! I love the scalloped edge he's applied to the bag :D
ReplyDeleteMy cat loves her cardboard scratcher too. She's so wide she spills over :P
Happy Animal Wednesday!
Great pictures!!!!
ReplyDeleteHenry V looks like my Troelie, a cat you don´t want to mess with......
He is gorgeous!
Happy Animal Wednesday!
This is a classic. Henry at his best! Is he going to be exhibiting any time soon? Jasper also loves ripping paper ... which is why I generally can't leave important documents lying around within his reach.
ReplyDeleteElspeth, I think Henry might try to get his paper bag entered in the next juried show in April. Wish him luck. Hi to Jasper!
ReplyDeleteDH has to hide papers too. Henry tears what's every near the door as his way of telling us he wants to go out. It works. We are trainned.
Teri C. Love the cat word verification. Interesting how the cosmos works. HAW (meant as a laugh)!
Cris, a natural what? Cat? Yes, Artist? Yes on both counts!
Lolo: Hi and yes, our cats have these things in common. Henry loves your blog, thus the paper bag art.
Marianne, thanks, Henry appreciates the compliment. Would love to see yours too.
You know how you sometimes add paper to your quilts. Perhaps you can use some of Henry's rippings in one of them. Just thinking ... good thing he's not named Jack (the Ripper).
ReplyDeleteElspeth you are too funny...great idea, perhaps Henry and I can collaborate on a piece...and yes, good thing that's not his name! LOL
ReplyDeleteYou captured Henry so well, noting like a cat and a bag. It gave me food for thought, maybe I will leave one on the floor for my Baxter.
ReplyDeleteWinco would love this for advertizing, but I don't think they do.
Loved this, Hugs Mary
This cat sure is adorable, Henry has the most funny and sweet little face:)
ReplyDeletelove

Seriously ... not only I, but I'm sure your other readers would love to see a quilt collaboration between you and Henry. Jasper is on my lap purring as I write this, so he approves of the idea.
ReplyDeleteYes, Elspeth, Henry says I should start collecting his torn papers for a collage/quilt and I will get on this right away...and try to fit it in between the two MAJOR quilts I am working on for the next juried show in April!
ReplyDeleteMiss Lynnie: Henry is obviously a talented and creative cat! And he has had such an interesting life. He gets his creative ability from you. Love from Jeri
ReplyDeleteJeri, you know Henry so well. Perhaps he and I teach each other!
ReplyDeleteWhat clever things are your cats up to these days?
