Another HUGE Black Cat Painting - Big Tish by Diane Irvine Armitage

I finished the second version of Big Tish today.  I'm happy with it :-) Tish has such a wide-eyed curious look all the time with those big round eyes.  I think she is part Bombay kitty with the round eyes and the triangular face.  While I was painting today, she and Luna were in the catio and kept scratching at the studio window, barely letting me get any work done.  I can't let them in the studio because that is Pandora's territory and they are dying to get in here and get all over everything.  This original oil painting on canvas is 24 by 48 inches - a very big Tish!

Big Black Cat Original Oil Painting by Diane Irvine Armitage

I'm working on another of my BIG black cat paintings.  This is a bigger version of the Big Tish painting I did recently.  I want to have one of these Big Tish paintings for the October black cat art show and keep the other one.  I'm not sure which one I will keep - we'll see.  This version is 24 x 48 inches - BIG!  The last version was 18 x 36 inches.  As usual, Tishy is super fun to paint.  Love that face!  More on this one tomorrow ...

Bad Attitude - Big Cat Painting by Diane Irvine Armitage

Despite a power outage and battening down the hatches for a big rainstorm coming our way, I still managed to finish the latest BIG black cat painting.  This black cat has an attitude!  This is the biggest yet at 24 x 48 inches.  Original oil painting on canvas.
