Are you a cat lover? If so, you’ll love Hector the Rainbow Cat, a multimedia felted sculpture created by Frances Laube.

The piece was inspired by BEING Studio facilitator Aaron Daniel Casey’s sculptural figures, combined with Frances’ own love of needle-felting. Frances describes the work as “a magic cat.”

Be sure to check it out and place a bid if you’d like to make Hector your own, starting May 31st, 2026: https://www.32auctions.com/organizations/114944/auctions/201293/auction_items/7005682
