I have always been an animal person and Cats are one of my favorites.
Fortunately, when I started my life over about a decade ago my new Life Partner loved Cats as much as I do. Actually, she is a little more obsessive about it.
We had a studio apartment on Capital Hill in Seattle and she just had to have this cat–Meet Clyde:
Clyde, Sun Worshipper
Well, Clyde needed company because we both work, so next came Houdini:
Clyde and Houdini
Now they aren’t always this sedate, sometimes they break into a dance:
Dancing Cats
Now why is he going on about his Cats? Well, people always ask where I get my ideas for paintings and what keeps me motivated.
The answer is pretty simple-Start by drawing or painting what you Love. Your focus will be greater and you will always have models readily available.
This is a watercolor on 130# coldpress Morilla. No it doesn’t look like Lounging Clyde, but Clyde doesn’t know that.
I was frustrated with the leaves around the Cat, but my primary focus was the Cat.
Running Tiger
This one is also a watercolor on 130# coldpress Morilla. The best part for me is the noncommital look in the eyes of this cat. I was much happier with the background foliage, but feel that I may have stunted the legs of this cat.
Further attempts at perfecting my cats is in process and it’s the fact that they are one of my favorite animals. Actually, my cats think they are people, so they aren’t the best models, but what can you do?
