Charlie
Oil on panel, 14x11 |
Today, I paint one of our sweetest cats, Charlie. He is another rescue cat who came to us young, and with the sweetest, most affectionate nature. He is always one of the first cats to greet us - and sticks like glue when given the chance. He has the most fabulous long hair - very paintable. I loaded this one up with thick, juicy paint! It is exhilarating to push and pull the edges with such a thick application of paint! Once I felt like the painting was complete, I pulled out my palette knife and spread on a few meaty highlight strokes - leaving them a bit choppy. This makes painting number 394 in 394 days, and day 29 in the 30 day painting challenge.
Awww such a cutie!! I am a huge kitty lover...my cat's name is actually Momma's Boy hahaha!!

Gorgeous. I am such a fan of impressionist painting. Your paint looks as thick as some of the Van Gogh's I've seen love it!
