Wash, custom pet portrait



Wash's person says, "Wash is such a sweetie, and is also our most independent cat.  He might be just as content to "hang out" with us from across the room while everyone else is on the couch, but when he wants love and pets, he will come at me with 100% intent to get them.  He has never met a string he didn't want you to pick up and play with him as he runs after it in circles - endlessly!"

Wash is part-tabby, part-Abyssinian. I've always found tabby cats a challenge, but I've done a few of the lately and I think I'm starting to get the hang of it.

Fantastic, Carolyn. I could see his personality in your painting before I read the written description. You have such a knack of capturing character!

Fabulous painting! That serious expression just intriqued me! Gorgeous eyes and loved reading a bit about Wash-I would say you have tackled Tabby's for sure:)
