Cats on the Wall

"Charlie"
Oil on canvas

For an assignment we had to research this one artist, (whom I will not name on my blog because I do not want my work to come up in the same searches)... however, after researching his work and being in a struggle with mine I found myself in such a low place that the only thing I wanted to do was paint my cat Charlie.  So I did and this lead to a series of cat portraits, I have about 20 now, and I plan to continue until I have figured out what I have started. 
I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed painting them!

coarse winds and gentle flowers


 
boistrous) gently like awisper
(she said when the waking had bewilderingly stolen over him)

(beast) and nurse your flowering
plant mind into
sweet dreams blooming stars
