I love cats and make pretty good muslin cats. I was recently asked by a customer if I could paint one of my cats to look like her calico cat as a gift for her mother. I've painted cats with splotches before -- calico cat style, so I said sure. She emailed me a photo and it turned out to be a long haired cat and I had no idea how to do that. I played with it a bit and did lots of experimenting. I thought about every painting show and video I ever saw, and to my surprise, my "Juno" is a pretty good impression of her "Juno". She liked it enough she ordered a second one for herself.
Wow what a wonderful job you did on that!! I think it looks precious. Love your work, Lucy! Hugs, Dawn
ReplyDeleteYou did an awesome job! I have a calico kitty also and I've tried to paint her before and it's hard!
ReplyDeleteGreat job. I tried to do that for my sister in law but I just can't get the hang of it.
