This was one of the first videos I ever made of my artwork. This oil painting starts off with a very dry layer that is somewhat scrubbed on the gessoed panel. Because it is not wet and juicy paint, I can layer much easier. I lay in the darks first followed by the lights. The whiskers appear by painting the negative space around them. I want the white fur to have color in it because white reflects the colors that surround it.

Hope you like it
