Sad Coco sentimental painting of sad cat

Sad Coco  Oil on cradled wood 10" x 10"  SOLD
While I feel somewhat defensive (is that the word?  self conscious?) about this sentimental painting --I must say I think I captured my little gray bear here-- in all his forlorn glory.  He's not a sad cat really, but he has his moments like we all do.  (:

  1. Lovely and sensitive. Looks like our George when we pass through the kitchen without feeding him... a resigned, disappointed look.

  2. Beautiful and soft. Coco is simply pensive, not sad. :)

  3. Not sentimental at all. Your painting is too strong to use that word. I think it is brilliant when you can capture emotion in a painting and whatever the reason for the mood, this cat's face will stay with me.
