Sepia Miniatures, Feline Photos Set

Set of sepia miniature photos of Stanley, Sally and Cookie.

I’m sorting through merchandise as I bring it back from my shop and found these three photos. It seems so long ago I took these photos, and I realize it was nearly 20 years ago. We were all so young, what a sweet memory!

I don’t like to leave things packed away—I forget they are there, and I forget where they are, so as much as possible I hang things on the wall. These three will hang near the kitchen doorway again, but I’d love to find a home for them.

Cats love to hang out in the sun, and sometimes the combination of their markings and the light and shadow can create an abstract effect, especially in black and white. I love miniatures too, especially in sets, just little accents that make a statement all their own.

These are three of my favorite little black and white photos which I printed in sepia to match the walnut-stained frames, and hand-cut black core mats to match in tan and natural white.

“Speckle Sally Walking” featuring my long-haired white cat and “Speckle Stanley Napping” featuring my tabby Stanley are vertical images matted with natural white on top with a black core.

“Sunny Cookie” featuring my tortie girl lying in a diagonal strip of sun is a horizontal image matted in ecru with a black core.

Frame size is 3.5″ x 5″, mat opening is 1.5″ x 3″.

Frames are solid wood, walnut stained but with no polyurethane so the texture of the wood shows in a matte finish.

You can find the listed in my Etsy shop under Sepia Miniatures, Feline Photos Set.

  • these are such precious photos. sometimes, when i am searching for a particular photo, i end up running across another photo from another time and sometimes another subject. i get sidetracked as i remember those memories of so long ago.

    • Me too, but it brings it all right back, those sunny days and what we were all doing then. I think that’s one of the reasons we take them, not just for the moment, but for how it jogs our memory years later.
