Kitty Face

This is an 8x10 scratchboard rendering based on a photograph by Dina Sierra, who gave me permission to do this work using her photo as reference. It is her daughter's tabby cat, Scout. I loved the eyes and couldn't resist working on it.The color of the eyes and nose leather is watercolor paint.

Jello Anne! How are you? Long time...........I love this scratchboard image. The perfect feline head appearing like magic out of the dark background makes for a dramatic and sensational picture. The texture of the fur is is very realistic and the eyes have been beautifully painted. I love everything about this . Brilliant artwork!
