I am not sure if I really want the world to see one of paintings before it is finished, but here is my latest effort. I am calling it "cat nap".
It is acrylic 16 x 12 ins. In acrylics you paint from dark to light, just like with oils. The cat will end up being a lot lighter as I haven't put the light areas in yet. The face need more work and detail,and the shadows in the skeins of wool need definition and deepening, but I don't want to lose the impressionistic style and make it look too much like a photograph. I am not really a fan of photorealism.
I also need to add "hair" to the cat with a fan brush.
Comments please?
