Final Stage on Cute Little Kitty


I put the first stages on this cute little kitty on last week.  Here’s the finished version.  I really got the transparency of her eyes well.  One of the unique things about a painting versus a photo is that I adjusted the values (the difference between light and dark) to make her more three dimensional.  Many photos, especially those with a flash, wash out those value differences and leave a “flat” impression.  A good painting will look much more life like than a photo.  The kitty’s eyes really demonstrate that effect.  jcannon1@bellsouth.net
