I used toy monsters to paint this portrait of Harvey – a spicy, playful shelter cat who is full of pizazz.
The monsters and bright colors capture his spirit. He is a bit worried, so I tucked him behind some plants for comfort. Also hidden in the painting is a tiny heart that represents all the love he’s ready to give.

At the time of this painting, Harvey was still looking for adoption from MSPCA Nevins Farm in Methuen MA. Sharing his story helps shelter pets like him find their forever homes — and there are so many ways to help, from adopting or fostering to simply spreading the word. At the time of this painting, Harvey was still looking for adoption — see the video comments on youtube for his shelter link and updates.
This video is part of my Painting Shelter Pets series, where I use art to highlight adoptable cats and dogs and raise awareness for animal shelters and rescues. If Harvey’s story touches your heart, consider visiting your local shelter — fostering, adopting, volunteering, or even simply sharing an animal’s story can make a big difference.
