Posey

I would like to say I have a lot of good photos of my cats to paint, but usually when I go to take their picture, they give me the "I'm so bored" look or they run away.  So I do have plenty of cat butt photos and ones with disdainful expressions.  How is one to paint a cat every day with such uncooperative cats?  I got to thinking about Karin Jurick's series of paintings of mug shot pictures and I thought - I know!  I can paint shelter cats.  Not that the cat shelters equate to prisons!  But there are sure a lot of kitties out there on Petfinder.  So today's Petfinder cat is called Posey.  Really beautiful blue eyes on this pretty kitty!

Posey is available at my Paintworks gallery here.
