Black Cat Juliet

11x15 watercolor of a black cat with imaginary background that is based on one of my shirt designs.  The stool is also made up and the orange red is perfect for the cool greens and blues surrounding it.  Juliet belongs to another artist.  This is painted on 140 lb cold press paper.  This pet portrait shows the subtle tones made by mixing black using alizarin crimson and thalo green.
