Calico Cat Resting

8x5 watercolor and ink on paper done yesterday.  Micron 01 pen used to sketch.  People have sent photos to me of their cats after I painted Glamour Puss, the chimera calico with  a checkerboard face of orange tabby and black with tortoiseshell body.  This one is really a cutie pie!

Chester Cat Lounging

12x9 watercolor vignette painted yesterday on Canson 140 lb cold press paper over a pencil drawing.  Chester is a very large and tall rescue kitty who has lived with us since 2011.  No masking fluid used for white fur areas.  He is missing his right whisker above right eye and no clue how that happened.  He was lounging when I took this photo and trying to decide if he wanted to reach over and slap me or not.
