I really like the heavy lines in this, it give the cats pose and the pic a more dynamic feel. Things feel like there moving. Wonderful job on this.

Thanks! The pose was developed after thinking about how Calliope would look if she was really motivated to leap into the sky. Her line of action -- an uncoiling spring -- naturally seemed to determine the composition and inclusion of everything else.

Thanks! Determining the right way to apply color was one of the most difficult decisions with this piece. To emphasize the dynamism of the central figure, I chose blue hues for the background and parts of the overstressed wing pack. The red and orange were brought in to heighten the drama and provide a visual cue linking this character to previous paintings in which she is featured.
