Default Homage to our KY Wildcats

These always attract alot of people's attention as they go by. These art pieces are part of the Artique Gallery at the Lexington Center next to Rupp Arena here in Lexington. They are a bit pricey but they are cool looking.

This is obviously a play on our KY wildcat basketball team which is a religion around here.

Hi Patrick. How unusual. You captured them well. They look pricey, but in the right place would adorn a corner of the room well. Still, a photo of the real thing is better than nothing at all eh? Thanks for these. PAUL

These are great! My friend has a small one of these, a cat that looks a bit like that on the right in the
3rd shot. The KY wildcat in the first photo is awesome! He must be a real hit in your region!

Cool shots, Patrick. I was wondering what had happened to the Cadillac hubcaps I'd been collecting!
