Sadie in Summer Oil Painting Pet Cat Art Animal Portrait Siamese Feline Sunshine
I painted this portrait of a beautiful Siamese cat a few years ago when I was exploring painting with watercolor on Bristol board. I remember how I liked the "puddling effect" of the paint on the smooth surface. It's also much easier to lighten an area that has become too dark or intense on the Bristol without ruining the surface of the painting. I think I captured Sadie's intense interest in her environment!
