Oil on Canvas

4" simple gold frame (This will add 8 inches to width and height measurement).

This painting is one that comes from many ideas I have painted over the years. Sun, Clouds, the same looking woman and many times with a pet. This time it is black cat. I always like the idea of her being with some kind of animal. It brings the painting to a camaraderie feel instead of a lonely one. I don't paint it that way on purpose, I think when I am painting it I am just focusing more on the composition, but when I look back on many years of painting a figure with a single animal it must be for some reason. I can't think of one where I have painted 2 animals although I use the dog and cat interchangeably, but I may have. I like how she is just facing the day and wonder what she is looking toward.
