The Stare of Peaches


This staring little kitty is Peaches. He is a few years older and a little less intense these days. This painting was done in acrylics on a Windsor & Newton canvas board, 3"x5".

One thing I don't like about painting in the summer is having a fan on, you need it to keep cool but it dries out the paint so fast.

I have a colored pencil ACEO to finish up today of a rat and a piece of fruit. For those who may not know, an ACEO is a piece of art that is 2.5"x3.5" (yes, that's inches), which is the size of a standard deck of cards, and is the only hard and fast rule, ACEOs can be any medium and some are even 3D.

Thanks for looking, enjoy your day!

A Lattice Cat


This is my cat Stripey peeking out from a lattice fence. Over the years I've done a lot of cats and some rats peeking out of lattice. I think of them as my 'lattice cats' so this one I aptly named 'The Lattice Cat'. It is a 6"x4" acrylic painting on Windsor & Newton canvas board.
