Nicky's Cat Willow
Cat with character!Acrylics on board - approx A4 - pet cat portrait - I enjoy painting animals as they truly are - scars and all - as they tell their story.
Louis the catAcrylics on board - approx A2 - pet cat portrait - Louis is a beautiful apricot colour and looks so chilled out
Tortie and Black & White catsAcrylics on board - approx A3 - pet cat portrait - This pair are very different but both lovely to paint - I really like the different colours in the tortie cat - challenging but enjoyable to paint.
JoraAcrylics on board - approx A4 - pet cat portrait - Jora is another Norwegian Forest Cat and so beautiful - wonderful long coat. She is also, sadly, no longer with us.
Snow LeopardAcrylics on board - approx A4 - big cat/wildlife painting - I was lucky enough to have a day out at the Smarden Wildlife Heritage Foundation and photographed this amazing snow leopard. I had to paint him too.
TiggerAcrylics on board - approx A4 - pet cat portrait - Tigger is a ginger tom. Oh yes. Atitude. Love him!
Siggy a Norwegian Forest cat Acrylics on board - approx A4 - pet cat portrait - Norwegian Forest cats are special to me and I have probably painted more of them than any other breed. Siggy was gorgeous and tragically killed which is so sad.
Three catsacrylics on board - approx A3 - pet cat portraits - three very different cats - who proved a real challenge to photograph (I never did see the Tortie and white ! so it was a good job they found a few photos for me). Love the fluffy boy.
Tiger - Watching YouAcrylics on board - approx A4 - big cat/wildlife painting - A young Bengal tiger - apparently relaxing but still watching you. I think tigers are truly one of the most stunning animals on this planet. Their stare, however, still unnerves me . . .
GucciAcrylics on board - approx A4 - pet cat portrait - Gucci is a British Blue - great name, great cat. What a fantastic colour to paint and such dense fur. Gorgeous.
SmokeyAcrylics on board - approx A4 - pet cat portrait - Smokey was the tabby from next door - and constantly fought with my Westie - unless they could actually reach each other and then they pretended they couldn't see one another!
Young CatAcrylics on board - approx A4 - pet cat portrait - this dear little cat is one of my favourite cat portraits - she has such a sweet face and the light and shade give the portrait depth.
