Description
Thank you so much for the support of my Bast picture, I truly appreciate it my friends, so please enjoy this picture as her spirit appears to the wizard's cat. Have a wonderful week, hugs Jane xx
This is part of a story I am writing, about a tired old wizard, his cat and the spirit of Bast.
The cat was so upset to see her beloved wizard worry about losing his lost youth and his fabulous magic.
She watched him scan his books of magical spells, as he popped his steaming mung bean tea on the floor. She loved her wizard so, and worried about him, but then Bast appeared before the cat as cats are the only creatures who see her. Bast made magic from the sacred scarob necklace that she held in her hand, and the magic restored all the fabulous spells the wizard once knew in his youth. Then the story evolves including all the wizard's trials and tribulations as the magic literally goes to his head.
I really enjoyed making this picture and sat up until 5 one morning so that my eldest grandson would get the card I was making him for his 13th birthday, a card he requested had my Amy cat and a wizard in too. From there the stories began - Love you Ben, hope you have the best teenage years xx

PLEASE DO NOT copy my work - I spent hours making my pictures they are unique to me, and also my stories too. It has grieved me to have take my stories off from my galleries, because they were being taken, and it would be a shame if I had to close my gallery altogether! I have made many wonderful friends on here who appreciate my work and would never dream of taking any of it.
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING UNLESS I GIVE MY WRITTEN PERMISSION TO DO SO. MY GALLERY IS COPYRIGHTED - THANK YOU -

So lovely work, Jane, so wonderfully composed and done!
Wonderful and magical
Oh Jane I just love your work, both image and story! You are fabulously talented my friend.
Your art and writing are wonderful and I so enjoy them. This is a wonderful compilation of your artistic talents.
Let me know how the publishing side of life is going. Sorry to be so absent lately but you know how it is and what's going on here. It never stops I guess. This is another inspiration image and I adore the skill and heart you put into it. Hugs!
A very magical and imaginative scene. CC
Stunning Artwork Jane!
Excellent!
Wonderful work my friend.
wow fabulous Jane .!
Every so cool....I wish you were my grandmother...I keep telling my grand daughter how lucky she is to have a grandmother who comes and spends the night and reads stories to her, I never had that...In fact I was telling my mom how lucky my grandchildren are and she cried because she never knew her grandparents.
cool story, great illustration!!!
LOL, Jane Dear, I cannot get used to your new and very lovely avatar, I keep looking at it wondering, who is that?? But I think it is the purrrfect avi for you! I just love this image .. with the beautiful Bast who has chosen Mistapus' marvelous face to use .. the utterly awesome Wizard .. and of course delightful, gorgeous, precious Amy!
amazing work as always!!!
Wel ljane it's been awhile for me I have been soooooo busy baby sitting and then hubby down (cancer) I am tired of seeing doctors: Anyway you haven't lost your wonderful way of telling stories and the art is super duper !!!!wow awesome all the way Happy Sunday(and mothers day if your one of us lol)))
What a wonder! I always enjoy the sense of life and color and yeah, magic in your stuff! It's always so crisp and refreshing and rich in the most extravagant details. You'd do wonders with childrens' books, and that's saying something since childrens' literature is so darn hard to write, but you create such fantastic wonders with just the right amount of mind-stretching whimsy that always makes stuff lively: kinda like those funny shoes with curled up, pointy-toes...you can't help but feel giddy when you put them on. Your work is like that, which is something desperately needed in a world like this crazy place we're all living in when we're not visiting more human-friendly or magical realms. This is marvelous, simply marvelous. Ah, and you reference Bast...she's one of my favorite ancient Egyptian goddesses; I had a cat I was going to name Bast, until I figured that she'd learn the origin of her name and it would go to her head. I named her Natasha instead, and well...the name still went to her head! But that's a cat for you! Anyway, I'm rambling and I just wanted to pop in and enjoy your rich work.
Fantastic scene, beautifully done!
A lovely story and great image to go along with it! I love the way you blend elements in your image!
Cool storyline and great painting. Digital painting is a skill I admire but sadly lack. Sorry to hear you've been having problems with piracy. It's a shame folk can't just create their own work instead of copying others and claiming it as their own. Fortunately my gallery is 99% tat so I'm pretty safe!
A cool and interesting image :)
Cool image and storyline, fabulous work. Love your avatar btw.
Fantastic charaters and colorful effects!!! Grace and Peace!!!
The wizard is rather cute isn't he? Love this image too! I am surprised to learn of your misfortune, I recently found out some of my art has been stolen and is being sold on a Chinese site! I am so sorry they took your work Jane, I know how much you put into it and it saddens me deeply to hear of this...I recently saw an ad on tv here that reminded me a whole lot of your work, made me think immediately of you. I haven't seen it since so I wonder if it had to do with those that took your work...if I see it again I will let you know! Big hugs Lady Jane!
A wonderful idea ! Bravo !
Your grandson will be happy, no doubt... BTW some of my son's artworks had also been stolen and many other artist's from here (we found out it was the Russian Mafia). Love the new avatar ! BB
Lovely idea and beautiful composition!
