Mother Cat and Baby

5x4 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper using new White Nights paints. This was done a few days last week before Thanksgiving.  I love the color of the almost white mother cat with minimal stripes on her head and her baby who was more vividly marked.  Green eyes were captivating so I made the background to complement them in this double pet portrait.
