Harry playing with his favourite toy. He just loves his Jolly Moggy Feather Boa. He carries it around the house and beats it to a pulp. It stands up surprisingly well to his attentions.

Here’s a close up. This is a 16×13 inch oil on board.

Hopefully this painting will be in the Society Of Feline Artists show in London in September.

He might not have a remarkable name but he is a remarkable cat. He came to live with his owner as a stray, he just moved in one day and made himself at home. But he quickly became the father of the family. One night he woke his owner in the early hours of the morning, he’d never done that before. When she got up to see what was upsetting him, she found that one of the other cats had hurt herself, she had a nasty cut that was bleeding. Black Cat had woken her to get help for Bella. What a cat! Of course Bella has recovered from her injury now and the cats sleep through the night again. Black Cat is a beautiful, gentle and remarkable cat.

This was an acrylic painting on paper.

This is Chloe. She’s laying on the step enjoying a hot summers day and the feel of the heat in her fur. The sun lights up her beautiful coat and fills it with rich reds and gold’s that set off her tortoiseshell markings so well.

She’s painted in acrylics on Fabriano Pittura paper. 

The first coat was a coat of iridescent gold medium and that shows through the subsequent layers of paint making her fur glow with the gold of the sun. This only shows from certain angles and is quite subtle but the photo gives an idea of how it looks.
