| Session II |
Here is my little cat, Petey, whose whiskers are quite astounding and so a painting was born. The first session made some decisions about composition, tone and proportion. Where did I want warm and cool color to dominate? What kind of impact was I looking for and what did it seem his naughty little expression was telling me... The second session I focused on darks. He is white and grey and so a dark background would make those whiskers sing. There is bright sunlight in the photo I am referencing and I really want to show that contrast. And then there are his eyes. Sometimes green, sometimes yellow, always full of mischief, they are one of my favorite subjects to paint...
