Cat Among The Tulips: 7.

A detail of a painting, Portrait of Sparta Puss, showing a chocolate tin and some toiletry bottles. The objects are mostly in pinks and purples.
Painting the chocolate tin.

I carried on with my portrait of Sparta Puss today, but concentrated on the still-life bits – the chocolate tin and toiletries. I think all the components are now in place, I just have to refine them with several layers of thin washes and I need to knock back most of the light bits.

I’m painting with Liquitex Heavy Body acrylics onto a 40 x 40 cms stretched canvas using brushes by Daler-Rowney, Winsor & Newton and Isabey.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D
