Lap Cat sketch

6x6 ink sketch done yesterday with Pigma Micron 01 pen on Masters paper. These quickie small works take no more than 10 minutes to do then add color later is fun.  I've painted cats sticking their heads inside milk glasses before.  It seems they'll do anything and are always asking "Got milk?" before it was a popular slogan.

Waif dog

8.5x6 watercolor of a small dog, rather sad looking mutt, right after a major tornado hit his town. I've no idea how his story turned out but he definitely is a waif for sure. He was in the corner in one of the news articles showing devastation and ruin, so hope he found his owner.

Tripod kitty

12x18 watercolor of a sweet fellow named Tripod. As you can see, Jeanette has to hold him so he can bathe. An all white kitty with orange brown head markings, he wandered up to their farm and was quickly adopted and loved.

Play it Again Sam (kitty)

15x22 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper done a few years ago of white and black cat hitting the piano keys. I love painting white animals! Such a challenge! These paintings on half sheets take much longer than my quickie ink and watercolor daily works.

Hallie cat at the window

6x6 watercolor, ink and line wash with Pigma Micron 01 pen drawn on Masters paper and painted today. Hallie is a tortoiseshell kitty, just turning 2 years old, who adopted me. Never a fan of the mottled black and orange coat, I was reluctant to keep her, but her happy little soul sweetness bowled me over. Now if I can only get the other cat to love her.

Fairy Rose - a mixed media figure

15x22 watermedia, mixed, on watercolor paper from a failed painting of a birdbath and geraniums.  I turned it horizontally then drew the fairy figure in ink, then using acrylics, leaving some of the original work showing through.
