New Cat Commissions Completed



Three cats owned by a friend. She gave these portraits to her husband for their anniversary. 
I used real fur from each cat in it's portrait.

This is Jooge. His stripes were a fun challenge!

This is Tyson. I loved creating this pose. So inspirational.

This is Tailhook. Sadly, she passed away in 2011.

I was about to give up sculpting cats as they had been quite difficult. However, working on these helped me become more acquainted with the form of felines. So, I'll keep taking commissions for cats. :-)

Sitting Kitty: Cat Sculpture

This kitty was commissioned for Mother's Day by a daughter. The kitty's name is Bonkers and she had a habit of sitting in a most "unladylike" position. 

Buddha-esque or Yoda, maybe?
Here's Ms. Bonkers herself. A big girl with beautiful gold/green eyes.

Getting those full jowls and the double chin were essential to capturing her character.

We are Siamese if you please. We are Siamese if you don't please.

I was asked to make the Old Fashioned Siamese. Not the ones that are now bred to have enormous ears and a long pointy nose. I had no idea the new look existed. I prefer the older version mySelf.
