Each painting is this section features Mike’s large siamese cat, Stripe surrounded by nature.

Most of Michael’s drawings are done in his succulent gardens, Stripe’s favorite place to relax.

Stripe lives in the present, and enjoys simple pleasures. Michael in contrast, lives a very fast

paced, complex life, doing many things at the same time. Stripe has been a comforting reminder

for Michael to take life slowly and relax. The first story painting created in this series was

Stripe on Vacation. "I can spend the day lounging on the deck, soaking in the delicious sunlight,

allowing my fat belly to sag pleasantly on the warm cement sidewalk.’ Michael has written stories

to accompany several of the paintings, and is waiting for Stripe to tell him stories to go with the

 rest of them.
