Kiki – Completed Calico Cat Painting

(view the work in progress here.)
I’ll show you a better pic tomorrow.
Updated with more accurate daylight pic (you may need to refresh your browser a couple of times to see it), and also – here’s a closeup of her face.
Violet Monochromatic : Jayden

This is the final portrait in this series of six oil paintings for my exhibit. I’ve got quite a lot of work to do yet, but it does feel good to have this whole concept finally down on canvas to giggle over. It’s a happy series, playful – joyful – colorful kids. Here they all are in my studio together:
Blue Monochromatic : Caitlin

Did you know that I offer a custom 8″ x 8″ monochromatic portrait package for just $140? You can see my portrait packages right here, if you wanna look.
Green Monochromatic : Evan

2007
Here’s Evan, he’s the fourth of six 10″ x 10″ pieces in this series of monochromatic paintings that will be on exhibit. Two more to go in this series and then I’ll be completing Kiki and then – last but definitely not least, the Heron.
Yellow Monochromatic : Austin

2007
Halfway done now – this is my little yellow dude, Austin. He’s number three of six in the series.
(Can you see where I’m going with this?)
Other tidbits – this is my 16th painting of the year (47 days into the year). I have 11 days and 11 hours to have all of my exhibit pieces ready to hang, and either 5 or 17 more paintings to complete, depending on how things go over the next few days.
Red Monochromatic : Alex
February

2007
One in a series of six for my exhibit, I was up late lastnight finishing this red monochromatic portrait of a sweet young lady – her name is Alex (everyone say HI to Alex!). This series will all be 10″ x 10″ square paintings in oil. I’ll be working on the next one (or two) in the series today.
Painterly tip: The secret to getting a light red without it becoming pink is this: cadmium red, flesh tint, titanium white.
Kiki – Calico Cat WIP #1
February

2007
This is Kiki’s underpainting. She’s a stunning calico and will be a beautiful addition to my exhibit next month. The next time you see her, she’ll be finished. She’s 16×20, a nice big size, larger than life size, actually.
Great Blue Heron : WIP #5
February
13
2007
I’ve just completed the underpainting on this Great Blue Heron that I began (ahem) last year. This is one that I’ve procrastinated that needs a lot of detail work yet, so it really was imperative that I get this underpainting completed so that I can spend some quality time with this piece once my other show pieces are ready. It’s 18″ wide by 36″ tall, an awesome size for this bird painting.
