Day 15 – Another Cloudy Day
November 15th, 2007
We're half-way through, AEDM folks! Woohoo!
Here's my art for the day. I was inspired by the colors of an abstract painting (if I can find the link to it, I'll put a link here later) to use the colors that are in her cape/cloak thing, but I think this was mainly inspired by another cloudy day here. It's about 9"x12" with acrylic on watercolor paper.

The colors in the cloak look so pretty and warm against the gray, it makes the painting look very cozy – and the snuggly kitty adds to the coziness factor, of course! Love it~xo

I’m so enjoying all of these, Leah. Thank you for sharing!
By the way, I just learned about this awesome illustrator from a friend of mine, and thought I’d share – I think you’d like her:

I love your play on colors here. This lady looks very cozy. Is it another self portrait? It’s wonderful.

I love the warm colours against the cloudy grey sky – and of course the cat!

What I think I like the best about this is the intimation of a warm fire (rosey glow) and the kitty and her girl nestled together looking out at the cold but being warm. Maybe that’s because I just build a fire in my woodstove. But I like the security of this picture!
