    Beautiful work Maria! I like how you've left some white paper showing, and the face on the kitty is perfect. :)

    Thank you Jennifer, Pat, Carol, Crystal and Theresa too, I think I will paint more cats, you guys seem to like the cats!
    I really liked the lighting in the challenge picture and I tried very hard to leave the lighted area white and my brush so wanted to paint in the details!

    Thanks Sheryl, I added a little pink and green to the eyes, and touched up the white fur under the chin since this posting, now I am going to leave it alone and move on!
