I've painted this cat before. She/he posed for me for a while, which I always appreciate. We were in a little alley in France, and I was hanging around because there were two ladies down the street standing in shaft of light that kept disappearing. I never did get a great photo of them, but what a consolation prize I had with this cat!
I have a LOT of photos in my arsenal that I took because something sparked in me when I looked at the real thing. But will they make a good paintings? Hmmm ... maybe. I sat on this one for a while because I wasn't sure it would translate. Because sometimes that little thing you liked in the photo just doesn't happen in paint. But I tried it anyway, because sometimes we just have to try sh*t, and I have to say, I'm quite happy with it.
