This is my favorite painting of mine-
It's of my cat, Tiger.
I've painted many things now, but my favorite subjects are cats...
I took a drawing class in college and my favorite subject back then was cats, too. Don't know why... I wanted my drawings to be so that you could feel their fur and watch them breath... so that you would expect them to turn around and look at you- not hyper-realism, that's not what I wanted... Just to get the feeling of the cat's movements and smoothness...

Okay, this may sound like pretentious artist talk, but I really mean it...
I love the feeling of depth. I want to see what is through the window. I wait to see if the cat will jump or bat at the light with a paw. I think the light does that...
What is it painted on? Wood?
No kidding. Really like it.
Thank you.
This is my special kitty, Tiger, who was an answer to prayer. I miss her- She died about 6 years ago...
I painted this on a chunk of wood we got at the dump. :)
Dumpster diving is a major sport in Fairbanks- pretty much everybody takes a peek when they drop their trash off at the transfer site...
