Description
Final step of the healing, now let time do its thing..It still hurts so badly though...
I love you Prince.
Rest in peace baby.
In my gut I felt like I needed to do this. For myself and him.
I'm going frame shopping tomorrow, before I leave for the week, and its being hung where I'll be able to see it, every morning when I wake up.
This still needs a tiny bit of work though, mostly with the background.
I can't even begin to explain how much better it looks in life though. I'm really starting to despise both my scanner and camera.
I chose to use my pastels and velour paper for this personal piece because of the softer quality of the art, dreamy almost.
And finally, this means so, so much to me, comments are extremely appreciated but critiques will not be dealt with kindly.

This is such a beautiful portrayal of your beloved kitty.
You captured his true spirit, I imagine.
He is so handsome here, as I am sure he was in real life.
I am so sorry that you lost him, but as you know, the love he had for you, as well as the love you had for him will live through all of eternity.
Well done.

My cat died today from FIP. We fought for her but we've lost. It's terrible. Human faces the death of his loving friend and startes to thing many horrible things. My heart is broken but I am still trying to think positive. She was put to a sleep and she is sleeping now in eternal. She is happy, she is not hurting. Maybe in the future I Will have chance to give home to another cat. Maybe it had to be like that.
I love that portrait. The cat looks calm and gentle. He is resting. I thought it's a photo. Beautiful technique. !

I'm so sorry for your loss, I do hope that you are feeling a little better. I know it takes time, I still miss my kitty and he left this world years ago. But it makes me happy to hear that you are trying to maintain a positive vibe, that is so important. <3 Wish you well!

Wow, for a second I thought this was a photograph.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss and I, to, am grieving because I lost my little baby 3 days ago. I'm still coping with the fact that she isn't with me anymore but it's difficult. I was thinking about painting her just like you did of Prince.
Prince seemed like a gorgeous and loving cat and you did very well capturing his beauty in this artwork.

Touching. Truly. I know how you feel, I lost a beloved cat a few months ago.
I love the effect you've created. It's like a dreamy window into the paper, into heaven. You've done a very good job. 
Here's to Prince and Mittens (my cat).

Whoah. We're in the same shoes - I just drew a "portrait" of my cat that died 1st december 2005. Never managed to move on, so I had to draw him - almost 5 years later. And funny thing is; we have the same title - and the same motive...
I know how you are feeling.
Great painting by the way, he was a really cute cat!
