“Whimsical Whiskers — A Visual Collection of Feline Companions,” by Bandon photographer Lynda Ann Fost will be on display through Jan. 8 at Easy Lane Frames and Select Art Gallery, 3440 Broadway Ave., in North Bend.

The exhibit, which celebrates the life of the “everyday cat,” will showcase Fost’s first attempt with animal photography. All proceeds from the show will go to the care and adoption of cats at the Coos County Animal Shelter.

“I wanted to do this to draw attention to the shelter cat’s plight,” Fost said. “It seems dogs get a lot of attention, but the stray cat population is so much higher.”

Fost is a self-taught artist. The exhibit will feature 24 matted and framed photographs of cats, ranging in price from $22 to $48. Fost will be at the gallery from 5 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 13, during Artwalk, to give those interested a chance to meet the artist.
