Lanky Teen painting of young cat in window

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!

  1. 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!

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

  15. 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!
