My submission for Illustration Friday's "Mask" is the little cat "Babs" that I use in most of my HomeMade calendar paintings and she has been featured in Marisol cards and some of my greeting cards too.The top image is her very own sticker the middle is showing her pampered lifestyle for a card and the bottom view, excuse the pun is a cover of my calendar.
The cutest mask is worn by Rat with a couple of his girlfriends.

Your house must be a treasure trove of work! I love the flying house, and the cat patiently waiting for it.
That is also a great photo of the dogs, they all look like they are having a ball!
Gee Miss Val, I'm kaflempt. Seeing those dogs makes me yearn for a new body. I've decided to come back as a Rat Dog. Bad Dog (deceased)

I love it all, but have to say those wonderful dogs take my breath away.
Babs looks like Zorro, Val.
Absolutely beautiful!
That Babs is just adorable!!! Your illos always put me in my "extremely happy mode" :-)
Once again it's amazing -- it's like a puzzle each week: what can Val pull out of her hat for *this* theme? You never disappoint.
Awww...you have a wonderful fur-family!
This has always been one of my favorite illos of yours.It "just says Val" to me.
Like all of them - but in the second one the tones on the wall and floor are wonderful!

Excellent Masks! Your art is always a treat to view!
Adorable! We had a mask kitty like this ... Halloween was her name.
