New hobby
As with all crafts, preparation is key – measure twice, cut once. Of course, Gilbert can’t use scissors, that would be silly, but he uses his teeth and claws efficiently. You can see on the lower part of the paper how his first attempt shows enthusiasm rather than precision.
In the upper part, the work, though not finished, is far more
defined. With a little more practice, Gilbert could prove to be a talented
artist, and remember, he is still of tender months. Who knows what the future
might bring?
LOVE IT!!!! Though I'm a little jealous that Gilbert is a more talented crafter than I am.
ReplyDeleteYou have talents that Gilbert could never aspire to.
DeleteOh Gilbert, you are my hero. So clever and creative.
ReplyDeleteToodle-oo!
Nobby.
If Gilbert could blush, he would.
DeleteHaha! I bet you could frame and sell his masterpieces!
ReplyDeleteNow that's an idea!
DeleteGilbert is a real artist ! You should keep his artwork and do an exposition ! Art on toilet paper is quite special ! Toby's doggy Lea, prefers to bite in legs, she is 3 month old now and does a lot of silly things (Toby seems less enthusiastic than his father, he complained to me that Lea makes too big kaka!)
ReplyDeleteHas Toby been given the job of clearing up after Lea??
DeleteGilbert didn't exactly make a bang with his first artwork. Most young would tackle art with much enthusiasm.
ReplyDeleteHarsh, Andrew.
DeleteApparently there are hidden depths and talents Gilbert has yet to reveal. There is a certain unexpected delicacy to his work. It will be interesting to see where he goes with this.
ReplyDeleteSometimes early promise fades - we shall see.
DeleteTry him on different types and colours of paper, you never know what might look good framed and hung near his bed.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea :-)
DeleteWhat a clever boy :)
ReplyDeleteAs we all age, I would hope Gilbert could use his skills for more life-saving behaviours. Like a seeing eye dog, could Gilbert walk you to the shops? Carry the groceries home for you? Bring you the mobile phone in his mouth when it rings? Bring your mail in from the letter box?
I'm sure he could, if only his owners weren't so idle.
DeleteVery clever, Gilbert. I see Christmas decorations coming up in the next half year or so! xx
ReplyDeleteChristmas decorations - what a good idea. I'll lay in a stock of red and green paper x x x
ReplyDeleteGilbert - perhaps you and I could collaborate on cardboard and paper art??? xxx Mr T
ReplyDeleteGilbert says: Happily. I'm very good with cats x x x
DeleteGilbert's got talent! xxx
ReplyDelete. . . but will he develop it? x x x
ReplyDeleteFunny! Gilbert the artist :)
ReplyDeleteCats love paper towelling too, or maybe I should say they dislike it and try to disembowel it, resulting in shredded paper towel everywhere.
Cats are very efficient and speedy shredders.
