Hiya folks! Finally able to make this piece available after its final varnish. The final finish has a sort of satin matt look which I feel suits the piece best. There are so many more light combinations to be explored with this angle, so I might even do more on this subject. If you'd like to know more on this piece and how it was created click on the link below.. SOLD Thanks for dropping by!.. :)

Private Collection It was great fun painting this alla prima oil of a subject matter so close to my heart, my mother and little cat (at the time) Crookshanks.
I wanted to really capture the early morning light as it shone brightly, illuminating the dark interior of my mother's bedroom. So, unlike the rest of the piece, the window area was left bare of any toned underpainting. The rest was painted with a limited palette over a toned ground of paynes grey, yellow ocher and raw umber. Much of this toned ground is left uncovered in the final piece intentionally and background elements have been left with a rough unfinished look. |
