Miniature Cat Painting

'Sleepy Boy' 2.5 x 3.5 pastel
It isn't easy to keep myself from painting to give my elbow a rest! I was good this weekend but now have two commissions to work on this week. This one wasn't bad since it was just a mini and I can sit at my desk to paint. The next one is an 11x14 beach scene and I will just pace myself. I did the sketch and tomorrow I will do the underpainting. The good news is that our bathroom remodeling project is just about finished. I just need a window treatment. I am calling the bathroom a 'zen spa' look....green marble floor, glass countertop and sink and lots of fluffy white spa towels. I am going to hang my feather and shell paintings to finish the project. Now onto the kitchen!

Your bathroom sounds beautiful...I'd love for you to post pictures of it! We are fixing to start on our bathroom, now that we have moved both our daughters back to college. I love home improvement projects! BTW, nice cat painting!

I hope your elbow gets better! I love visiting your blog, I just found it a month ago. I was googling pastel artists and found your site. I visit it almost every day, your paintings are amazing! Thanks for sharing them with us. I really like your cat paintings! At the same time they`re both light and intense.

This painting reminds of my cat, Bunch. Bunch of colors, fur, noise and trouble. I love what you can do with pastels!
