Frannie and Susie is a little adventure I paint and write about, based on my daughters, and girls in general, myself included, and cats. Frannie is usually blond and Susie is usually black, but we all have a variety of cats, so sometimes that changes. In “Frannie and Susie Go Fishing”, Susie is black.
Here are some pics of how this all started.
This is me, in 1959… when it all began…

These are my twin daughters, Frannie and Aly
