What a wonderful rendering of your sons beloved cat. Spider's eyes look great. You have truly captured his personality. Spunky and not afraid of things bigger then him. Great job of fur and whiskers. He looks soft and touchable. Wonderful work of art. I am sure your son loves this piece very much!

Very nice. I was not sure of the background at first. I thought it overpowered Spider. But, I think I see what you are doing. It makes the cat mysterious as cats should be. Nice compositiin. Excellent framing and presentation. I am happy to give this one of my rare six stars. Thank you for sharing and best of luck with this image

Cool,Suzanne!
Your pastel portrait of 'Spider' looks Great,my friend!
Spider not only reminds me of several of the black cats that I've owned and loved over the decades but your drawing of him shows off the look of Feline Mystery that such creatures have in a perfectly enjoyable way!
A very 'Good Show',my friend! : )

Suzanne ....this is just so beautifully done. I love the effects of the black on black....it can't be an easy processing to make it work so well. You just want to reach out and touch this gorgeous creature....but you have it with the eyes and capturing Spiders personality. Your incredible shading brings that fur to life and making it so realistic. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing. Your pastel work is incredible!

Love the eyes on your son's cat Spider. They light up the artwork. Nice detail in the eyes, ears and fur. Keeping the background dark adds an element of mystery to the cat.

Beautiful work! Reminds me of my sweet black cat, Baby. Presentation and visual impact are impressive. Lighting and effect is soft and pleasing. Often artist paint black cats looking scary. Not this one. I can almost hear it purring! Highlighting and shading are beautifully rendered! A wonderful impressive piece!

Suzanne,
A beautiful picture of Spider the cat his golden eyes glowing out from his dark fur with tabby markings... watching you while reading your very thoughts in my mind's eye he is purring loudly. Created with very skilful brushwork beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing Spider to life.

Love the highlights on his gorgeous black fur and in his amazing green eyes. There is a softness I like allowing those gorgeous green eyes to draw us in.
Beautiful work on Handsome Spider Suzanne
