Cat 40

Cat 40: Lizzy in the laundry.
Acrylic on Masonite. 12" x 12".


Lizzy likes to burrow in to the pile of clean laundry, still warm from the dryer. Which is why everything I own is embellished with cat hair.

I finally surfaced from working on taxes long enough to push paint around.  Here, I was aiming for a more fluid, less hard edged look, and thought working with fabric might help achieve that.
What I liked about this pose was the strong diagonal top left to bottom right, with the opposing diagonal of the right ear.  I also like the reflected colors in the white chest.
I'm not convinced this is finished, but it is time to put it aside and move on.
