Diane Rattner is an artist who loves cats, or is it that Diane Rattner is a cat lover who paints. I forget, since she has intertwined these both tightly in her life.
In Diane, you simply cannot have one without the other.
Diane has developed “Catfucius Creation,” her art business.
Cats are so wise, you know. Diane incorporates this wisdom in her artwork.
Besides being cat lovers, Diane and her husband Howie are happy people who investigate art niches wherever they go. Knowing all the “hot” places to view artwork in Chicago, Diane and Howie have been instrumental in raising the awareness of the magnificent art displays in the Chicago Art Institute, Chicago public buildings, and more.
In the following weeks, I have the honor of presenting a few of
Diane Rattner’s watercolor artwork in “Art Inspires Art.”
- Diane’s Catfucius Part 1 includes this introduction and seven kitty paintings.
- Diane’s Catfucius Part 2 will include six more kitty-lovin’ paintings plus two close-ups of Roxie and Romeo, Diane’s new kittens.
Diane Rattner’s philosophy in life:
Wise and intelligent are those
Who adore cats.
