Description
Some believe that we all have lucky stars assigned to us at birth by the Universe. So when anything good happens to us, it is the influence of our lucky stars, basically just be thankful for what you have and know that occasionally it is just good luck.
This is a photography based digital painting inspired by my Cat Oreo perched on my deck fence post one winter looking intently toward a nearby bird feeder. I decided to place him on a fence post pondering his fate in the stars. He has a perfectly shaped white marking on his back that looks like a capital Y or perhaps a sling shot. You can see it faintly in this photopainting. I prefer to think it symbolizes youth as he always pretends to be younger than he is and plays like a kitten. When young he learned by himself to play fetch with his stuffed mouse and would bring it to me and drop in my lap for me to throw. Each time I did he would retrieve and bring it back to me just like a dog. This went on for quite a long time and I usually tired of the game before he did. Now he prefers to perch on the fence post for attention. Running back and forth is just too much work and it's much easier to just sit and count his lucky stars :)

I love the mystery of it. What is Oreo thinking? He's enjoying the evening and making a wish on a star. Maybe bird for dinner:)
