Collectible matching pair of completed mid-century paint-by-number hobbyist paintings featuring two adorable kittens. Perfect for a gallery wall, a retro nursery, or any lover of classic kitsch and cottagecore decor!
• The Artwork: One painting depicts a sweet grey and white patched kitten against a warm ochre/tan background. The companion piece features a fluffy grey tabby kitten sitting against a striking, vibrant sky-blue backdrop. Both feature the signature stylized color blocking and charming outlines unique to vintage paint-by-number art.
• The Framing: Both paintings come ready to hang in their original, matching mid-century stained oak wood frames.
• Folk Art Provenance: The reverse sides of these pieces tell a fascinating story of mid-century thriftiness. The artist used salvaged corrugated shipping cardboard from grocery store boxes of \"Ellis Brand Pork Luncheon Meat\" (distributed by the historic Ellis Foods Corp. out of Denver, Colorado) to secure the backing. This unique touch adds a wonderful layer of authentic retro Americana and folk-art history to the set.

Excellent vintage condition with a beautiful, natural patina. The paint remains intact and bright. The wood frames show minimal shelf wear consistent with age, only adding to their authentic mid-century charm.
