"Tidestar," acrylics, 11"x14"

Another fantastical mermaid kitty. It's funny. I just got a new laptop, and I'm not accustomed to how all my work looks on its monitor. I feel this painting wasn't quite so yellow-tinted in real life. 😐
A purple and iridescent mermaid cat hangs off a crescent moon drifting over a dark nighttime ocean. There is a bright star in the background, and evidence of another behind the purrmaid. #art #acrylicpainting #purrmaids #mermaids #cats #catart #paintingcats #fantasyart #feline #ocean #stars #painting #traditionalart

"Sleeping Beauty," acrylics, 10"x8"

It's been hard getting onto social media and posting regularly. Do any of you other artists have this issue?

I painted this fast and loose and even used a palette knife at times to work paint onto the canvas.
A traditional painting of Sleeping Beauty, as a kitty. The kitty is orange. She sleeps on blue brocade pillows. She wears a gold crown with pale green gems. #cats #art #acrylicpainting #traditionalart #traditionalpainting #paintingcats #orangecats #princesskitty #kitty #cat #feline #catart #painting

"Sparkles," acrylics, 10" x 8"

I painted this after watching the Barbie movie. Not that I ever need much of a nudge to make pink things. I love pink! It's a defiant upbeat color in a hard serious world.

🍊Tangerine Dream,🍊 acrylics, 8"x10"

I love painting princess kitties dripping in bling. Especially when they look into your soul with serene all-knowing gazes! 😄
A beautiful black princess cat gazes at you with large green eyes. She wears an orange cloak trimmed in copper. Around her neck is a silver necklace with colorful beads dangling from it. On her head is a gold crown with a fiery gem. Behind her is a deep blue sea, and above her are tangerine branches. #cat #art #painting #acrylics #blackcats #feline #kitty #princess #tangerines #traditionalart #magical #fantasy #classicalpainting #moroccaninspired #paintingfruit #paintingcats #catart #ocean #orange

"Spring Fever," acrylics, 9"x12"

I painted this almost exactly 5 years ago, during that dreadful spring of 2020. Tough times, yeah?

#cat #art #spring #tulips #brushstrokes #acrylicpainting #painting #kitty #feline #springfever #purplecat #surrealart #traditionalpainting #catart #paintingcats
A purple cat wearing a medical mask looks worried at the viewer. A bright blue sky is behind her, and she is surrounded by yellow tulips. This was painted in the spring of 2020, when covid was popping up around the world. I remember the sky being so blue, the spring so fair, yet being worried about the road that lay ahead. Those were tough times. Yeah?

Still a work-in-progress but the colours blocked in on the cat is making me smile.

The little purrmaid makes a pact with the sea witch. I painted her onto a 12"x9" panel with acrylics.

The little purrmaid, a white mermaid kitty, is making a deal with the sea witch. The sea witch is a reddish octopus. This painting feels dreamy and classical. But it also feels dark and ominous.

Painting these blue kitties brought me some JOY today. I'm hoping that they bring you some JOY too when you see them!
