Colorful Tabby Cat Soft Pastel


The weather was SO beautiful today with bright sunny skies and a soft cool breeze.... It was my first full day of puppy sitting my new grandpuppy. His name is Brewsky and he belongs to my son, Sean, who is taking him back to his apartment where he is entering his junior year at Virginia Teach. Brewsky is a gorgeous black lab and is not quite two months old. He was a joy to spend the day with but I must admit....other than shipping a painting, I did not get any painting done! It is like having a new baby in the house again. He is only happy when he can lay right next to me. I don't think I am going to want him to leave! My other two dogs and cat will be happy to pack his bags!

Today's painting is sold already but I wanted to post something and encourage anyone who is interested in having a pet portrait done....to give me a call or e-mail me. My phone number is 757 729-4136 and e-mail is nswilsonandco@cox.net. My cat, Rusty was the model for this piece which I entered into the Cat Show at the Artists Gallery and it received an award that evening. I sure do love painting animals. This one is a soft pastel and I also do them in oil. Thanks for stopping by....hope your weekend is going well.
