Nell is a country red and well-fed feline. She flounces about wearing her gauzy white scarf, which is covered in yellow polka dots. It is tied in a big bow around around her neck. She might be a little chubby, because she never refuses a snack. “No” is not in her vocabulary when it comes to anything delicious. Besides, who would think to deprive her of anything? That may be because everyone knows Nell has a big voice that she uses to approve or disapprove. She will proudly demonstrate it for you.

Nell has big gold eyes with green centers, and a contented kitty smile.

Nell is a handmade miniature original one-of-a-kind cat art doll figurine. I hand sculpted her from paperclay over wood, in multiple stages, to allow for drying and detailing.
