Sneak Peak of my newest painting.

I have just a few more details to do on this painting. What do you think?  I love the cat.  I use to have one just like it.  When we got our yellow lab, he decided to take off.  My kids swear they still see him living a few streets down.   Anyway, tomorrow this painting will have a proper post. 

Sleeping Tiger

Just got back from a sister's weekend at the Cape. As many of you know I have five older sisters, and one younger brother. It was a year ago last week that we all went to Sicily, so we decided to have a reunion. I hate to sound cliche but I can't believe how quickly time goes by.

I began this small painting last week before I left and just now finished it. What can I say, I love cats especially tiger striped ones. We always had one growing up. Here I really wanted to work with multiple patterns and lots of contrast. This piece is 8x10 painted with acrylic paints on stretched cotton and linen. The sides have been painted so no frame is needed. For sale in my Etsy Shop.
