I've got the puuurfect spread for September. September is my birthday month, so here's a funny fact about me... painting cats has historically been my nemesis. I like cats in real life but painting them I've always kind of struggled and I don't know lately I've just been really tackling that I'm not afraid of painting cats. That's like the mantra I'm telling myself and so I feel like it just worked out perfectly that it was for September. I am thrilled to get to paint this calendar spread with you.
