This Afternoon

I painted this from a picture of a friend's cat. At first, it did not work for me. After getting away from it, eating supper, and making a few minor corrections, it works better, especially for a first attempt.

Mixing and painting the different whites was fun and I like the brush strokes. For once, I was able to carry plenty of paint in my brush.

I did this painting while my niece was over. We both painted together. While it was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon and fun way to spend time with her, I have a harder time painting or drawing with other people around. It's something that I want to practice, since I don't want to be down in basement all alone whenever I want to create!
