Famous Little Furry Face


What a whirlwind the last week has been for Cooper and all of us in his support staff! We took him to the gallery three times for different press events, which got him plenty of cat treats, but I think it’s been as exhausting for him as it is for us.

In the last week we appeared on Evening Magazine (Washington, Oregon, Idaho broadcast), Q13 Fox News (in Seattle), on King 5 News (NBC Seattle), Kiro News (CBS Seattle), and on Good Morning America! (GMA OMG!) We have had numerous requests for interviews from other local and national news organizations. We’ll keep you posted on Cooper’s upcoming appearances. You can see some of the video clips here at Cooper’s Profile page on the Cross Films site.

As reported in the previous blog, we had a fantastic turn out at Cooper’s gallery opening, over 400 people, and continue to have a steady stream of people interested in viewing his work in person. If you’re interested in owning a piece of Cooper’s photography, limited edition Giclee prints are available at the Urban Light Studios website.

And we’ve been saying it for months, but Cooper is finally an official member of the Cross Films crew. Welcome to the team, Coop.

Now, the reason we’re all here is because of Cooper’s photography, so here’s some of what he’s shot in the last week.

I really like this abstract shot he took in the gallery. The blue lights are really interesting.

Another great shot of the gallery as a film crew is interviewing Michael.

After dropping by the gallery Sunday, we took a walk with Cooper, where he took this wonderful scenic photo. I love that you can faintly see his whiskers hanging down from the top.

Cooper is currently resting. No photos today, though he plans to go out and shoot on Saturday.

Cooper’s Gallery Preview

Today Cooper visited Urban Light Studios for a press preview of his gallery exhibit. We were nervous he would be uncomfortable with all the reporters and their flashbulbs, but Cooper did great! He sat there like a pro, seemingly proud of the framed photos hanging behind him.

Cooper meets the press

Tomorrow morning Cooper and Michael will be interviewed on local country music station KMPS 94.1. The interview is supposed to be on at 8:40 am. You can follow the link to listen to it live. Michael is sure to give a fun interview to the “Waking Crew”, but we expect very little from Cooper – he’s not much of a radio personality.

Cooper’s Gallery Exhibit to Benefit PAWS

A portion of all proceeds will benefit PAWS Cat City Adoption Center.

Supporting Cooper’s photos will mean more cats will be microchipped, spayed and neutered. It’s a small way for Cooper to give back to the community.

The gallery exhibit details are as follows:
DATE: Friday, February 13, 2009
TIME: 6:00PM to 9:00PM
LOCATION: Urban Light Studios at The Greenwood Collective
ADDRESS: 8537 Greenwood Ave, Seattle, WA

This date coincides with Greenwood-Phinney’s monthly ArtWalk. Please join us in celebrating the beautiful photos our cat has taken during this unique project – and for a great cause to boot!
