Yep, more kitties. The customer who ordered 10 cat paintings earlier has ordered 3 more! She really likes my art. :D

Left is "Stormy", a 9 month old crazy orange tabby.
5x5" acrylic on wood

Middle is "Etna", a gentle tuxedo who watches over and entertains Stormy.
4x5" acrylic on wood.
These two are the customer's "grandcats", owned by her son.

And right is "Emma", a lovely maine coon who's passed on but she has 2 portraits now to keep her memory alive.
"Emma II" 5x5" acrylic on wood

I promise the next painting won't be cats! Sculptures are another story. ^^'

I so love it how their very different appearance also speaks about their very different personalities! And their eyes... they're so alive! :heart::heart::heart:

Eyes are the mirror to the soul - and my favorite and always last part to paint! ;)

Aww, hehe! :love: A lovely variety of cat faces. Especially Stormy really has an unusual face, in my opinion. I see many more photos of cats that resemble Etna and Emma...
I think it's amazing how different cats look, even though cat breeds resemble each other much more than dog breeds... :)

Just a little criticism: The fur on Emma's neck doesn't really look very soft because you painted too many single hair hanging down straight.
Your cats tend to look a more and more stylized, but that's a "style", too. ;)

:3 Yes the angular kitten face isn't as common. It's more apparent in cats that are more oriental or siamese. Most are round and chubby LOL :D

On Emma's left side? Yeah, I know...the customer wanted me to omit some wild hairs and it ended up straight. :shrug:
