Tabby Cat on the Sofa WIP

February 5th, 2010by inkandbrush

Finally found some time to work on this painting! Have started on the toy she is laying next to, adding more and more layers of color wash. Adding more and more detail to her face and body. The close up below, is pretty close to the color she will be when finished.

And I think I have figured out a name for this painting, “Urban Jungle”, kind of just popped into my head.

Crochet and Belgian Lace

Crochet
Following my textile theme, here is my latest creation, called, “Crochet”. Some thing maybe your Grandmother knitted with skilled hands, to grace the dinning room table.

Below is a small close up, though as always, my digital abstract creations are best seen large.

Belgian Lace


I love Belgian Lace, handmade, delicate master pieces of incredible beauty. So I decided to create this piece because of my love of this textile.

As with most of my Abstracts, it is best seen Close up. Here is a small slice so you can see the detail a little better.
