Lisa's Black Cats Lucy and Leo - Custom Cat Oil Paintings by Diane Irvine Armitage

My latest custom black cat portraits are Lisa's lovely cats Leo and Lucy.  Lisa says that Leo is not a small cat and looks like a mini black panther and that Lisa is part Siamese and has a gorgeous Siamese face with lovely pale green eyes.  I painted two sets of paintings for Lisa.  The first is a classic portrait style.

The next pair of paintings are of Leo and Lucy laying down, with Leo playing with his favorite feather toy and Lucy looking adorable on Lisa's lap.

Such a pleasure to paint such beautiful black cats!

Rocky the Maine Coon - Original Oil Painting by Diane Irvine Armitage

This painting is a commission for Rita of her Maine Coon Rocky, who recently passed away.  This painting was a real pleasure to paint, with Rocky being so gorgeous.  And I really enjoyed painting the pretty rug he was posing on too.  I really wanted this painting to be special and I think it is ... I'm pretty pleased with it.
