On the Prowl

On the Hunt
Oil on wood panel

I am having fun with color on this painting!  We have the most adorable cats, and today I thought it a good time to start putting their images down in oil.  This dominant male cat came to us ten years ago, and was named by my oldest daughter "Soco" (it was her freshman year of college).  Among his many adventures was the time he hid in our van, only to jump out in a store parking lot!  We chased him from car to car, enlisting the help of three cheerleaders who had just left the store.  Finally, we caught him - scared out of his wits - and took him back home.  He never went near the van again.  Painting number 379 in as many days and Day 14 in the 30 day painting challenge.
