One of my cats in oil

I never know when to stop. So, I added the whiskers and said done on this one. :nerd_face: This is an oil on stretched canvas (14"x18") . Does it look done?

Hi James -

I really like your cat and the range of colors that you’ve used. I’m still learning oil and acrylic painting, so I love it when others share their work.

I suggest that you send this in to Matt for the Member’s Minute. I’d love to hear his comments and recommendations.

Thanks Terri… I was thinking of sending it in to him. One nice thing about oil is it’s possible to make a lot of changes even after you are “done.” :smile:

Hello @jcfuller , I think that it looks great. Honestly anymore work may take this one too far. The cat is obviously great and the focal point, however, I do love the background treatment as well.

Thanks for the feedback Lenet. I think I do have a bad habit of overworking things so I’m trying to stop too soon rather than too late. :wink:

I like it! You did a good job capturing the calico color. As to your question; does it look done? You are the artist. It looks done when you say it’s done!! Good job!

James @jcfuller,

Hello, I am sorry I just now saw this wonderful painting. I love cats and also the personality you captured of yours.
