Gloria J Zucaro's "Stormy Weather"


9 1/2"H x 11 1/2"W  Pastel on Sanded Paper
$75.00 Unframed  $100.00 Framed with Mat and Glass
$85.00 double matted with Plexi, no Frame
S&H to your ZIP.


This painting will be for auction on the Daily Paintworks website.
dailypaintworks.com. 

I actually finished this painting on Monday last, but then tried something new...spraying it with fixative.  I learned that it definitely darkened it, which can change the values somewhat.  I also learned that if you use charcoal as your black, it blurs out with the moisture.  So after completing all my work this week with painters, plumbers, and carpet cleaners for selling the townhouse, I finally worked on it again to fix values, add highlights and make the black cat a little less of a puddle!  So now I am posting it on The Daily Paintworks site as my entry into last Saturdays challenge which was superstitions.  This one is about never opening an umbrella in the house and black cats crossing under...things??.  I am not really superstitious, however, I am cautious about not stepping on a crack in the sidewalk and possibly breaking my mother's back!!!!  (Step on the crack, break your mother's back!).  I read that only 1 in 20 adults avoid cracks in the pavement...wow...I feel really special, LOL!

DPW Challenge - the whole cat . .

cat DPW challenge pastel painting
6" x 6" daily pastel painting
unframed

DailyPaintWorks has a new challenge and it was just what I was up for today! I'm been too busy thinking of some new conceptual compositions and not painting. I resisted blending the pastels for the cat . . that alone was a challenge.

For purchasing information please visit my blog - http://riahills.blogspot.com

This kitty was so much fun to paint. I have to thank Nancy Rose again for allowing me to use her photo as a reference. I'm not sure I did the photo justice, but it was fun trying. :)
This painting was completed on pastelbord with mostly pastel pencils. It is available in my Etsy shop for $50 and free shipping.

Tabby Cat by Angela Bishop

"Tabby Cat" 5 by 7, Pastel Painting by Angela Bishop
Available at the Stillwater Art Guild Gallery
"Tabby Cat" is actually the first animal painting I ever did. Since I completed this one I haven't been able to stop. I'm an animal lover and expressing their unique and cute personalities in pastel has been a lot of fun. If you're interested in a custom pet portrait simply visit my Etsy shop, email me at angela292@hotmail.com, or visit my blog.
