Love, love, love this one.  Can't remember being so happy with a cat painting and it's not even my cat!  The awesome photo reference for this painting was provided by Robyn at Love & Hisses.  Thank you, Robyn!

    Aww....so cute! I can see why you are so happy with this painting - it's wonderful :). Love the reflections and the way you handled the light (and of course the lanky teen himself).

    And, there is something clearly very interesting on the Cat TV channel he's watching!

    Absolutely fabulous and so full of movement! I would never have thought of doing a cat from this position :-) but it is SO great.

    Your best "cat" painting yet. You did capture the teen spirit.

    The painting makes me question what the cat is thinking. Nice job.

    I love this one too. You captured the look of a young cat with all the spring in those back legs.

    I was sure I left a comment on this, but it's not here...guess I did something wrong.

    This is such a good painting! You perfectly captured the look of a lanky teenage kitty! Something very interesting is going on outside that window. I really like how the light is hitting his feet! Great detail, Diane!
