The Lookout oil painting of cat in doorway

The Lookout   Oil on wood  6" x 6"  SOLD
Here's a less than stellar photo of a painting I am very excited about.  More small cat paintings to follow. 
Of note, I'm looking for colorful photos of chickens and roosters to use as photo reference for a project.  If you have one (or many) and you don't mind if I paint from them, please get in touch!

    Great!!

    You might want to ask permission of the blogger at LOVE & HISSES. She fosters kittens but lives on a farm and has posted many many wonderful chicken photos and I bet she wouldn't mind if you asked her.

    I love the way the cat is looking back through the door - it adds a lot of mystery!

    This is a great composition! Love the contrast of the colors with the black kitty.
