Bucky Cat

6x6 inches, acrylic on paper

I've been thinking about painting our cat, Bucky.  She is a charming black and white female, rescued from the Humane Society about five years ago, and better than an electric blanket in the winter.  I love 
her sweet nature, plush fur, and the two freckles on her pink nose.  The challenge here was to choose colors that are interesting, not just black, white and gray.

You have achieved a wonderful painting here, she looks good natured and the colours are perfect. Happy Christmas.

Love the pose--my cat curls her paws under just so too; it looks so sweet, contented!
Happy Holidays!
