Painting of a Gray Cat

It's been a while since I painted a cat portrait. Well... the time has come :)
I tried to keep this one more painterly than usual, and I really like the calm yellow/turquoise background.
I used Kyle Webster oil brushes for this portrait.

You can get this painting on many products on my Redbubble Shop, here's the painting on a pillow - wouldn't like to cuddle with it? :)

Blue Parrot Sketch - "Polly"

Hi there,

Lately I decided to keep on practicing with new mediums and different kinds of portraits. Usually I paint dog portraits, and regular "human" ones :) I already sketched and painted, lizards, giraffes, flies and cats in the past month. The other day I wanted to sketch a parrot, just a quick little one. When I looked at the result I wanted to throw it away, it was just for practice. But I didn't. I decided to watercolor the sketch,  to give some life to the bird. I thought that the result was cute and funny, very lively if you will... I wanted that the viewer will feel happy and optimistic, while looking at it. What do you think, can you feel it?

If you like the painting, you can purchase a quality print of it - right here.

Early in the Morning - Capturing Nature

Hi all,

Yesterday morning I woke up pretty early (for a Saturday). I took my camera, my dog and started exploring my surroundings. Winter arrived and gave me many opportunities to capture it.
Take a look at some photos that I took while I was strolling. Enjoy :)
