Description
I got this canvas, a desktop easel, brushes and acrylic paints for christmas. It was my first time using acrylics properly, and my first painting on canvas.This is the painting of my photo 'Stumpy Kitten' . Sadly Stumpy went missing last year and we haven't seen her since (but that's what you get with ferral farm cats), so this is the most up to date photo I have of her.
I really enjoyed doing this. It was fun trying something different, if a little frustrating in places (I had to learn to mix colours properly - something I've never really been good at). I was amazed at how it turned out, too, since I expected it to look terrible
If you're interested in seeing the process of painting this, I've uploaded some photos into my scraps: [link]

Ah what a nice, intense stare in her beautiful eyes and spectacular details on her fur & nosey. Very nicely made, I had pure pleasure looking at your painting!

Thanks! I wasn't sure whether to do it in a more impressionist style, but I did love painting the fur
