Fritzi was Paul Klee's favorite cat. Fritzi was always welcome in the painter's studio, even though he would knock over pots of brushes and get under foot. Fritzi was also a "hunting cat" who liked to be outdoors stalking birds and mice. Paul Klee loved Fritzi so much he painted his portrait.
Second graders are taking a close look at this painting of Fritzi. Then they will think of a special cat that they know and use some of Paul Klee's ideas to draw a portrait of their favorite cat. If you look closely you can see what their cats are thinking about.
