For cats, to me, the most important are the expression of the eyes - you certainly did a great job on your ISIS's eyes - well done, I like it.

I actually mean soft fading on the sides, to make it a picture and not just a cat in the middle of nothing. If you cut of the edges and spread the cat to the sides that would work,but i dont think that is the idea.
This is an excellent cat so you just need to soften the stark blue. i cannot expaint it otherwize I did an example. just to show you.
Just a suggestion, hope you don't mind.
Don't want to offend you at all.

You have done a beautiful job with your cat. I like the flat blue background. I am bothered
a iittle bit she isn't in the centre of the frame. She would be the centre of focus and
the overall image could be stronger. |

Retha, I am not offended at all. Thank you for your suggestions and showing me graphically an example of what you meant, I will keep them in mind for future works.
Frank, thank you for the comments, I appreciate them, I too love the eyes of cats.
Richard, thank you so much, I had thought that putting the eyes in the center of the painting would be the focus, but will keep this in mind for the future and try putting whole head centered to see how it looks.
JRamesh, glad to hear from you again, thank you for stopping in, I had done a full body but not happy with it, that's why this started out as a practice piece, to get the fur just right, her white fur is so white that there are few values in it.
I can't photograph her as she is too curious about the camera, so I had to close the door to art studio (she kept trying to run away from me) and hold her in front of me, paint a bit, hold her etc. She really became quite annoyed with me, but I did manage to finally do it. |

Heatherm, here you have made art, great job for sure. When first I opened the page, from your picture I had some sort of emotional slam effect my melon ..... it was great.
The thing I care for the least in the painting, for whatever my opinion is worth, is your name ..... not that you have a bad name or anything like that, just the visual of it where its at in the painting. The thing I like the best is the painting itself! Great job for certain.
I think it is great what Retha has done ..... but I should be clear. The effect she gives is not to my taste so much as your original ....... but the idea of altering ones work and posting it, all for learning sake and so forth ..... this is great and I hope no one shy's away from it for it comes much closer than simple words in sending the correct message, as in fact is shown in this case. |
