2024 Logo

Hello out there in internet land! We here at Cattyshack have so many things going on this December, and one of the biggest things is our Holiday Auction!

Coming soon to a computer near you is our Holiday Auction! Our auctions help provide medical care to those cats and kittens in need and to help spay, neuter, and care for the cats and kittens in our care. Supporting our medical funds is a huge deal as this is where most of the rescue money goes! We will have three pages linked to our auction because we have had so many wonderful pieces of art, handmade items, and donated goods in the auction. Starting December 6th and ending December 20th, you can get to the auction using the link below! Any bids made before December 6th will be deleted so make sure to wait to bid on all of our awesome items!

Auction Featured Artist of the Day

Our last artist feature is another Lowe Mill Artist with a studio called Symmetrical Universe.

Symmetrical Universe is run by the artist Steve Pitts, who creates all of the work you can see in his studio. The studio is on the second floor of Lowe Mill in studio 2051. Steve draws all of his work with a Radiograph pen which is a technical pen often used by engineers, architects, and drafters, and often uses an ink cartridge rather than refillable tubes. His art is all very sleek and several are fine lined. He has a variety of different types of work ranging from architectural places to machines to mandellas. Steve Pitts has donated several items to the auction and we are happy to feature him in our blog.

You can visit his website at symmetricaluniverse.com

Below is one of the pieces that he donated to our auction

Auction Featured Artist of the Day

Today we want to focus on someone who seems to specialize in big cats and the female form.

We received donations from the artist Briana Zierman-Felix. She used to have a studio on the first floor but moved up to the second so she could have more space, and everyone is lucky she moved. She has so many original paintings that moving to a bigger studio helped get everything she had seen. Her art is powerful and passionate and all of it evokes a feeling, what that feeling is will be up to the viewer of the art.

You can buy her art in her studio at Lowe Mill at 2005, or visit her website brianaziermanfelix.com.

Here is one of the items she has donated to our auction.

Auction Featured Artists of the Day

Today, we want to introduce you to Cut A Rug Tufting Studio. The studio is located at the Lowe Mill Arts & Entertainment building in wonderful Huntsville, Alabama, Studio 326, which is on the third floor. The artist, Brent, is a friendly, nice guy who was willing to donate two cat rugs to the Cattyshack Online Auction. He has rescued a dog and cat himself. His rescued cat was seen on the side of the road, after having been hit by a car, and lost one of his back legs due to the incident. The kitten has now grown to be a cat and gets around fine as a tripod! Brett also holds workshops, so you can learn to tuft your own unique rug. You can visit his website at cutarugtufting.com.

Here you can see one of the rugs that Brett of Cut A Rug has donated.

Aplin Artworks is another studio that donated to the auction. The studio is located at the Lowe Mill Arts & Entertainment building, Studio 2000, which is on the second floor. The studio is run by Dennis and Patricia Aplin. They have a great studio with a lot of light, which is great because their work is stained and melded glass works. Their son also makes beautiful glass chessboards. They have lessons where you can learn to work with glass in a mosaic application. Check out their website at http://aplinartworks.net/
