From the Dark - a Sumatran tiger by Kat Davies

I love all your gallery of big cats .You really have caught the feeling of the wild animal ,so often animal paintings are a bit "chocolate boxy". very well done.Are you using a velour paper?

Kat..I am viewing all your postings very humbly...you have something so special in your work, and I suspect that 'something' is yourself and your feelings about these glorious creatures! They are a joy to look at.

Thank you Barbara - I use a sanded surface rather than velour which personally, although it feels lovely to the touch, can have a tendency to lack vibrancy and cannot be blended easily with colour shapers or fingers. Thank you Ruth - that really is a lovely compliment which I value very much....
