Can you give this festive fluffy cat a home? An online auction of the painting is live until Sunday 19 November at 16:30 GMT.

Are you interested in commissioning a painting from me? If so, make sure you're on my commissions mailing / waiting list by messaging me via this contact form. I'm about to start scheduling commissioned paintings for completion later this year so will be emailing everybody on the list with latest prices and information about the process PS This was the last commission I painted before taking a little break - it's of Puschi, Fusslo, Schnuddi and Ta-Zuma who live in southern Germany. It's 30 x 40cm, acrylic on deep canvas

I've just released four new high-quality poster prints at just £9 each - the collection is growing!

The other new poster is 'Rita's Cats', below, featuring four fluffy ragdolls and a green-eyed tabby mog:
