'Sam on Red Chair' pastel pet portrait

'Sam on Red Chair'                             11.5 x 27.5 

 

'Sam on Red Chair' joins 'Pumpkin', posted below, in the series Cats on Chairs.  Theses are so much fun to paint!  Cats are naturals models, so I have plenty of photos to choose from.  How about an original painting of your special pet?  Original art makes a wonderful gift.

I am definitely a cat person, so I'm working on a series of cat paintings for the Open Studio Tour of Artists of Northwest Atlanta November 3.   About 25 artists are opening their studios for you to visit and see where they work.  It's free, and you can go to as many studios as you like.  For more information, go to http://artiststudiotournorthwestatanta.blogspot.com/.  5% of sales will benefit local animal shelters.  Deb Cook and Barbara Kincaid will join me at my home studio.  I hope you will, too.

Teddy is a beautiful, sweet King Charles spaniel who won me over the first time I saw him.
Many different blues, greens, purples, oranges and pinks make up the rich colors of his fur.
