Bengal Cat Painting – SOLD https://www.thepaintedcat.co.uk/blog/cats/bengal-cats/whats-up-bengal-cat-painting/ https://www.thepaintedcat.co.uk/blog/cats/bengal-cats/whats-up-bengal-cat-painting/#_comments Mon, 15 Jul 2013 17:56:01 +0000 http://www.thepaintedcat.co.uk/on-the-easel/?p=752 The first of the paintings I’ve been working on for the upcoming shows. This lovely lady is Dazzledots Fashion Show – known as Milla to her friends. I’ve been wanting to do a Bengal in profile for a while and Mara Summers of Dazzledots Bengals very kindly let me use Milla as a model. As you can see she has a very beautiful profile and I loved the pose. I wanted to keep it very simple behind her, so I chose a neutral blue/green colour that really sets of her colouring well. I don’t know why but this colour feels quite American and she’s an American cat so it seemed to fit her perfectly.

 I painted her with a knife so the paint is juicy and thick with lots of colour in her coat.

Whats Up Detail

Her eyes are the most important part of the painting so I painted those carefully with fine brushes to get the curve right.
