Princess Upside Down
January 13th, 2009
This is Princess lying upside down in her favourite chair. Enjoying a spot of heat bathing!
Other CatsFrankJanuary 4th, 2009 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….
Big Beautiful EyesAugust 1st, 2006
This is a sketch of Karli (aka Dovepeak Paintedlaydi) a gorgeous tortie and white Devon Rex cat. She is such a cutie and those beautiful enormous yellow green eyes makes her wonderful to paint! I think her breed name is very appropriate. She lives in Devon with Sarah and Ian and the rest if the feline family.
Here is the finished painting of Big Beautiful Eyes. It’s a small picture, 8×8 inches, painted in watercolour and acrylics on watercolour paper in very light washes to keep the delicacy of the sketch and the impact of her amazing eyes. Pretty Blue GirlMay 14th, 2006 This little cat is Cora, a British Blue kitten. She’s sitting under a Japanese pagoda in the garden and the sunlight is falling through the leaves of the plant next to her. I loved the colours, the blues, greys and violets in her fur and in the slate all around her and the warm yellows and golds in the pot and in her fabulous eyes.
And here is a close up of the finished painting, it was painted in acrylics on William Turner paper.
