About a cat......

In preparation for the show at the Brotherhood winery, I thought it would be fun to have some paintings with wine in it.  I had began this particular painting because I also love cats so I thought, "Cats and wine, what a great combination!" and I wanted a calico cat as well.  But for some reason I never fell in love with it no matter how many times I worked on it. 

Here's a picture........

 

 

So now I have "bagged" the whole idea and I am "re-using" the canvas for a new painting.  I really would rather paint a black cat and I am taking the wine out for now, at least that's the plan.  So now, as you can see, I painted over most of it but there is still some nice "under painting" from the original which is nice.  (Between you and me, this is actually my THIRD time painting over this canvas as it is an old piece from my college days and was originally a still life with, you guessed it, a cat sculpture in it!)

 

 

 

 

I will certainly keep you updated on the progress!
