CHRISTMAS CATS - 10 x 16 Available
Ta da!! I did it!! My cats are done and ready for the show.
As soon as they were finished I was busy photographing them and setting
up the cards. I even cropped the picture and made some Christmas Tags
with them. My little cats were a real hit at the final show of the year
and now they are off in the mail to family and friends.
I was very pleased with my cats, particularly the background.
I have always found backgrounds a challenge. I suspect it is
because I am so focused on the main subject and where and what I am going to do
with it that somehow the background becomes less than secondary. Working
in layers, using the negative and pulling out things really helps me to stay
loose and not get caught up in too much detail. I particulary love the
colour that I can introduce to really build my connection with the focal point.
Well I do want to wish everyone a
Merry Christmas and all the best
for the New Year. May next year be a very successful artful year for you.

GOT MINE!
Hey that is great, I can't believe how fast the mail is, even at this time of the year. Have a good Christmas Brenda.
These turned out beautifully, Wendy! Also glad your show and fundraiser in the Garden Greenhouse turned out so well. Looked like a fabulous venue. Happy Holidays to you too!
Thank you Barbara, Happy Holidays to you and all the best for the coming year.
Very beautiful! I love the light and shadow on the cats.
Thanks Florence, I was amazed at how the layers of glazing developed those shadows in such a sutle way. It seemed like I wasn't doing anything and then suddenly they were there.
