Elle Dancing thought her college art career would be a string of critiques and caffeine-fueled all-nighters. She never expected her professor's cat, a random tumble of paint, and sheer dumb luck to turn her into the art world's newest sensation. As six-figure checks roll in and expectations skyrocket, Elle must navigate snooty art critics, her meddling best friend, an overly enthusiastic mother, and the unpredictable antics of her "muses" (three clumsy cats). But when fame and fortune collide with real-world struggles, Elle discovers that art, much like life, is messier, funnier, and more profound than she ever imagined.
