Description
This is a painting of one of the lovely and talented 's deviations. You can find the reference photo here: [link]She was kind enough, long ago, to give me permission to paint it. This one is watercolour, 6" by 9".
I should get just about caught up on messages this evening - I'm using my wife's computer while mine is in the shop, and her study kind of gives me the creeps.

Thank you so much! This one is probably my favourite cat painting; I like painting for fun because I can take risks a little more as far as highlights and stuff.

These cats are beautiful <3
I think they're the best looking and ,ost interesting cats.
You also did a really good job on this, the eyes are perfect.
Almost... hypnotizing..

Thank you so much! I'm really proud of thsi one; I think I like painting siamese more than the other varieties of cat. THere's just something kind of mysterious/cool about them.

Guess you have to think like that, or else you'll end up sitting in a corner, hugging your paintings ^^

Hm, maybe you could cover all your walls with your artwork, haha ^^ There's a house in this town which is completely filled with paintings, you can't see the walls at all, looks pretty funny..

Actually, that sounds pretty cool...

Aaaw, how stupid, my mum's like that too! I actually think Sweden's worse, we have mooses for god's sake, mooses which get drunk or something by eating apples. Isn't that a bit more dangerous? Should be.

I can see the headlines! Drunken Mooses on the Rampage in Sverige!
I got a gift from Sweden today, and it came wrapped in a newspaper. I sat down and "read" the paper. Apparently, I can get a nice little house in Sweden for just a couple million Kroner

A gift? Was the newspaper the gift or was it whatever was in the newspaper? You made me curious now, you better tell
Haha, oh yes I bet you can, are you going to get one?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, the newspaper was the wrapping for a drawing I received from one of your countrymen. Well, countrygirl, I guess.
I wish I could! I bet it's a great place to live. ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, sounds interesting
It would be nice if you did come and live here, this country could do with another great artist
Might I ask you how you've been doing since I last was online (which was ages ago)?

sent me this: [link] ^_^ I imagine she's never seen an actual armadillo.
I've been doing pretty well - the holidays went very well at the gallery (I was able to get Pepper a Jacuzzi for Christmas!). Unfortunately, January looks like it's going to be a very slow month. D: I only have three commissions I'm working on right now.

A jacuzzi!? That sounds terribly expensive to me. And that armadillo was pretty cute to be honest..
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I got a really good deal on the jacuzzi, but it's soooo nice!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's an outdoors jacuzzi? Awesome! Wouldn't like to have it here right now though, the weather's being really crazy, windy and rainy, and when I went by bicycle it felt like someone was hitting me in the face, not the most nice of experiences..

Apparently, northern Europe is having a rough winter! I don't mind the jacuzzi when it's cold, but if it's raining, it's no fun.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ouch, rain, it's been a while since I last saw that.. Everything's just grey and boring, it would've been more fun if it was raining, but seems like I'll have to remain bored

You have some fabulous watercolours in your gallery - great talent 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you very much! I seem to be most comfortable with watercolour - it just seems to come pretty naturally to me.
I'm quite impressed by your gallery as well - you've got an amazing hand with pastels, and your pencil work is incredible.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you - Pastel and pencil are my thing - I cant do watercolour at all - I love your work x

Cool! I've always wanted one myself, but we're practically overrun with cats here as it is!

The painting is wonderful, and reminds me of my cat growing up a blue point Siamese that was so smart he loved to play hide and seek. I will endeavor to pay much more attention to your work now, I think there is a lot I can learn from it, and I intend to work very hard at perfecting my way of doing things from now on.
Regards,
Warren

Thank you so much! I'm kind of proud of this one, myself, but I have to give a lot of credit to the reference photo, which is really a stunner. The eyes were a challenge - that's pretty much why i decided to give it a go - to see if I could come close to getting the eyes right.
I'm watching you as well - your landscape technique is absolutely brilliant; I'm always afraid to try landscapes in watercolour because I'm not very comfortable with washes. I think we may wind up learning from one another here!

Your most welcome it's a great piece of work.
Thanks for adding me to your friends list, I put my studies into scraps and should have new work to post very soon. I definitely agree that we can learn from each other, I most certainly can learn from your work, and if you get a thing or two from me that wonderful. Just wrapping up the details of the sale of my company, and should be hard at painting in the near future.
Regards,
Warren
