The Painted Cat - Cats On The Easel » Black and White Cats

Princess In The Grass

A sunny day and Princess couldn’t resist a roll in the grass. She had a lot of fun rolling in the daisies and disturbing the butterflies. I wasn’t going to miss the opportunity of a great pose either!

She’s a cat with very yellow eyes and a pink nose so she looks like one of the flowers herself!

This is a 10×8 inch oil on board. I’ll be showing this one at the Untitled Artists show in June in Chelsea.

Mitzy and Smudge

One of the Christmas commissions, this is Mitzy and Smudge relaxing on pink and burgundy cushions. Lots of fabulous colour in the painting, the delicious pinks and reds in the background and blues, greens and reds in their fur too.

It was hard to get a good photo of this painting, it’s so dark outside and of course the flash bounces off the paint!

This is a 16×12 inch acrylic painting on paper.

Ness, Vienna, Rigsby and Bob

This commission to paint Ness, Vienna, Rigsby and Bob took me a while to complete. Their owners, Stuart and Jane, wanted the four of them curled up together but Ness doesn’t like having her photo taken! So I needed to come up with a pose that included all four cats even though we couldn’t get them to pose for the painting.

This is a 22×16 inch acrylic on a deep sided canvas. Here are some detailed photos…

Frank

Another of the Christmas commissions is Frank. I rather fell for Frank as I was painting him. He looks to be quite a character. He was also a lot of fun to paint as he’s sitting partly in sun and partly in shade and the colours in his fur change with the light.

A close up of the canvas….
