WDE 29 jul- Gone fishing!
Managed a very rough sketch in acrylics of the figure and cat.
This is around 9 by 12 ins on Fabriano paper, I think. I like this pose and so I may get around to doing more with it...
Thanks for the great pix. I loved the beach scenes and saved them for later.  |

Re: WDE 29 jul- Gone fishing!
It tells a story without words. Is the cat wanting companionship of the guy or is it waiting on fresh fish to eat, or both? Excellent work!

They both look content with the world. I would like to be sitting on the wall with them.

Re: WDE 29 jul- Gone fishing!
June,
I love your "sketch" I wish I could sketch like you.
You have really caught the feeling of relaxing together and the companionship. I also like how you did the rooftop tiles.
Thanks for painting this weekend.

That cat stole the show! He looks like he's ready to jump at something!
