A few weeks ago I posted an adorable Tom Kitten tattoo designed by Elize Nazelie. Elize is not only a fantastic tattoo artist, but she’s also a painter. You can find her wonderful watercolor originals and prints in her Etsy store. My favorites, of course, are her cat paintings.
Here are a few more of her pieces from her DeviantArt gallery:
These last two pieces feature Elize’s kitty, Nimbus. She is also in the “Weathercats” piece above.
What a gorgeous kitty!
Don’t you just love Elize’s work? Well, guess what—it’s your lucky day, because we’re doing a giveaway for one of her “Kitten Kitchen” prints!
All you have to do to enter is 1) be a fan of ModCatLove on Facebook and 2) leave a comment on this post telling us which featured piece of artwork you like the most.
The giveaway will end on May 29th at 5pm CST and is open to all readers.
If you like Elize’s work, be sure to check out her portfolio, DeviantArt gallery, and Facebook page. If you’re looking for a tattoo artist who takes tattooing as an art very seriously and you happen to live in the Boston area, Elize works at The Boston Tattoo Company in Somerville, MA.
I like so much the second piece of art, but all the artworks are cool!
Congrats, Elize Nazelie, i love your work!
:)
I like the “I like this shirt” one, but Mew is right, they are all darling and great! Keep up the wonderfulness! :)
My favorite is the “I like this shirt” too! Every one is adorable though!
Could not choose – love it all!
Such beautiful art, great use of watercolors. I’d have to say “We love you older brother” Is my fave out of these, its just got such good colors, and a creative idea~
I love the “You were on my mind” print! My husband and I were long distance for a while and it reminds me of that time <3
Aww, that’s sweet. :)
I love the kitty kitchen oil painting.I It reminds me of my cat and every time he tries to eat my food! =)
I really adore the milk + more, funny and cute :)
i like the last one the best! with all the kittens licking their food xD haha
My favorite behind Kitten Kitchen is Weathercats! My fiance and I are moving into our own (and first!) place together soon and I would love love love to hang Kitten Kitchens in our kitchen :D
I was thinking about hanging my own copy in the kitchen, as well. But I’m also planning on making an entire wall of cat artwork, so I can’t make up my mind where to put it!
Hey there miss!! thank you so much for the lovely and extensive post!! I shared it on my tattooing facebook. Reading everyone’s comments made my day! Glad you guys like my lil kitties! Thanks again <3
Oh, it was my pleasure! I adore your artwork. :)
I love all of them, I only wish that Elize was near me, I woul love a tattoo by her, the work is increadible. I f I really had to choose my favorite it would be “you were on my mind” I love the colours and details. :o)
Oh man, me too. Her tattoos are beautiful!
I really, really love the you were on my mind print, I deleted my facebook a couple weeks ago but I follow you on tumblr, does that still count?
Sure. :) I might be doing a Tumblr-only giveaway, too, sometime soon.
Elize is one of my favorite artists out there and I hope to one day get a tattoo done by her! My favorite is the “older brother” print, because I love the colors of it (like all her work) and the cat reminds me of a fu dog!
Wow these are all so beautiful, but I think “You Were On My Mind” is my favorite. She’s a great artist, I think a trip to Boston might be in store for some gorgeous body art :)
The first one with Good Morning Sunshine reminds me of my Gizmo when she wakes up in the morning and is looking at me with a look of, “Good morning Momma! Time to get up!” And the one with the kitties eating is really cute, too. Some of the artwork had really great colors. Okay, what can I say? I like them all. :)
The quirky towering three some is my fav. ~^..^~
I love the Kitten Kitchen the most! Not only does it have beautiful colors, but there’s also kittens AND cupcakes! What’s not to love :)
I think it has to be the first one ‘Good Morning Sunshine’ that is my fave but I love them all, fantastic artist, thanks for introducing me to her work.
Like other commenters, I think all of these works are lovely. I have two favorites. One is “I Knead You”—what cat parent doesn’t know and love this supreme intimacy? The other is the Stack O’ Cats. It’s great in itself, and it reminds me very much of a wooden sculpture in the Dupont Circle area of Washington DC (just up the block from Zorba’s, in front of a law firm’s building, is a Stack O Suits, I have a pic on my hard drive but can’t figure out how to upload it), one of my favorite bits of sidewalk humor, and handsome too.
My favorite is “I knead you.” It is so perfect. It definitely captures the personality of my cat Twinkie. She will hop on my bed and land on me and immediately start to as, I call it, “massage” me. So cute!
I lovelovelove Weathercats! Especially Nimbus :)
