Zeus Cat

Our cat Zeus

This is a painting I did in acrylic paint on canvas of my cat Zeus.

This was extremely difficult as he is completely white!! Luckily for me he has huge ears and lovely green eyes <3
I've wanted to paint him for along time but never really had the guts, I've never painted an animal portrait before, let alone a white cat!! However, I think I did a really super job, I am going to attempt another but with him in a better position, 'cause he really does just look like a white blob. :P:P

First canvas!!

First canvas painting!!

      This is my first ever canvas painting!!
I used Arcylic paint and I had to use it quite thick for the paint to look better on the canvas.

     My influence was obviously my previous posts about the candy skulls, I did have a go with chalk but the lines weren't very crisp so I tried it with the paint, unfortunately for me, my brushes suck!! So the lines aren't very clean at all. :S:S

     I know that this isn't perfect but like I said it was my first, so I only used the smaller canvas which was a shame because if it was bigger I could have easily put more detail in it.
    

Practice makes perfect!! So i'll have to keep practicing.  :):)

     All in all I think I did pretty well, and I will deffinately be using this media again!!
