Large Size Black Cat Original Oil Painting by Diane Irvine Armitage

I'm working on a project for October - several very large paintings of black cats for a show at a friend's store in Laguna Beach.  I figure I have until the end of March to get them all painted and then I should be able to have them varnished before the beginning of October.  So here is another large black cat painting.  This one is 18 x 24 and I love the shifty look in this cat's eyes.  Same cat as the last post.  I will be doing smaller studies for these large paintings and then painting the larger paintings from the studies.  I'm happy with how loose and sketchy this turned out.
