Here’s Jo, ensconced with a bright floral blanket and her (and my) favorite Laurel Burch kitty pillow. I used iridescent copper acrylic in parts of the underpainting, and let some of those areas on Jo’s fur and the background kitties show through the oil paints. Fun!

Here are my step-by-step progress photos. Check back for commentary Monday morning.

And for all you mothers out there …

Happy Mother’s Day!
