Valentine Kitty

Fast forward to challenge # 131 from Carole Katchen's 200 Great Painting Ideas For Artists.....which is to invent or exaggerate colors to create a more exciting design.  I chose to paint a cat from a reference of a black and white kitty and I actually made the photo completely black and white so I could just look at the values...the lights to darks and used mostly red to describe them.  It was pretty frustrating at first but then it became fun.  I thought she made a great Valentine Sweetheart!  

Tomorrow I will be dropping off three paintings to the Artists Gallery in Virginia Beach for their One Foot Squared Show which opens this Friday and runs through the month.  I hope you will come out to the opening which begins at 6:30 and goes until 8:30.  It is a beautiful gallery on Norfolk Avenue a couple of blocks from the oceanfront.  Thank you for stopping by!
