Midge- Cat Portrait

 Close ups

Oil on 7x5 canvas panel.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Kay was the hostess who provided a bunch of great photos! This is her cat, Midge. I got a kick out of Midge keeping a cautious eye open between snores. Kay challenged us to work in some black and orange within our paintings in honor of Halloween.

C&C welcome. Thanks for looking and commenting.

^{1 Peter 1:24}                 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
²⁵ But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

Happy Halloween!

Acrylic, approx. 9"x8" on Canson cold pressed watercolor paper.

The WDE was on a Halloween theme this week. Dana was the gracious hostess.

I first put the drawing on the paper then applied many wet washes of acrylic, often encouraging runs and blends by spritzing with water. Sometimes a blow dryer was used between washes.

I tried to reach a balance between detail and suggestion.

It was a blast to try some experimentation.

I felt I should do something to say Happy Halloween to all you spooky celebration devotees.
I had fun with this one. I concentrated on giving this pumpkin the appearance of emerging from the darkness by keeping close values on the dark side and using soft edges. This helps with both depth and mystery.

Hope you enjoy it!

Autumn...Fall...Halloween...They all manage to just sorta slip up and surprise me every year. Probably 'cause I'm trying so hard to hang onto Summer. Bye Summer, see ya next year.
