Bonnie and Bess: Work in Progress #1 (Painting)

Posted by rachelcreative on October 26, 2009

This is one of the things I am working on at the moment.

Here are work in progress photographs of a commissioned painting of Bonnie and Bess, the client’s two cats.

Outline sketched.

Lines painted in. Bonnie’s whiskers and eyebrows (top) will be white eventually.

Looking a bit brown with the first couple of background layers.  The early stages are typically not very pretty!

More brown on the background. This will get softer later, be a more grey brown and look a lot better!
