Just completed the "sister" cat portrait to the one I painted before my holiday.  Entitled "Viv's cat "Poppy" lost in the Jewel Garden". 

My friend Vivien has these two lovely cats and both of them have completely different personalities. So I tried to show the slightly sinister side (tongue in cheek) with "Lily"... see on previous post by including my trademark bugs and here with "Poppy" who is so girlie I thought jewels (another favourite motif of mine) would be appropriate. .......... I know its all a bit cheesy but hopefully Vivien likes.
