I like this piece quite a bit, a very warm, comfortable feeling.

I might change the placement of things a bit, though. Moving the cat slightly to the left, and the dog and carpet a little to the right and up closer to the stove might be a little more visually interesting and create a better balance in the frame.

Well composed and presented. I'm pleased to look at the details. All is harmony, simple but beautiful. The subject is of course a winner.

Comment from Spirit Dove


I was drawn to this painting right away. The feeling of comfort seeing the cozy fire place, and the pets resting in the warmth. I can feel the warmth coming from the blazing fire. Great detail on the floor tiles and the fluffy rug. I love the basket and candle stand also. The colors are warm and inviting. The shading is wonderful too. Great job.

You have made a very good picture.

I love the compossition, and the detailes.

Nothing is missing on your work, the cat is lying just like a cat enjoying the heat.
You even got the envy in the attitude of the dog.
Wonderful work.

Suzanne, this is a wonderful oil painting of your two pets at home. They look so cute and comfortable. I'll bet they cuddle around the stove to keep warm and comfy. Your colors are nice and soft and your brush strokes and textures add appeal to your art. Nicely done. Eleanor

Looks like they both know a good warm spot when in the house. They are napping in comfortable positions as well. Initial impact, story telling, color harmony and composition ver good. Good luck in the contest. Thanks for sharing your work.

Thanks for this beautiful painting about some of your pets. Also the details of the room are well drawing and paint. So: pets in room and humans out LOL..LOL..
I also love animals and that is one of the reason that I like it too.

Many great colors to enjoy and make the view much more pleasent. The animals enjoying the warmth of the fire is a warming cozey feeling for the viewer.

I like the interplay with diagonals in this strong composition. Your technique and color palette delivers excellent detail and contrast. Your light and dark work has created a marvellous depth. Well done on this excellent work, I wish you luck in the contest.

Comment from Babyboomer


This painting depicts a warm cosy ambience amongst animals in a human environment. Focal point of interest the cat in the background obviously takes dominance over the dog for the best spot in the house. Very territorial creatures. Colours are nicely muted for warmth. Composition has a feeling of contentment, trust and acceptance in sharing. It would be nice if you had painted more of the fireplace adding further glow and warmth to the mood. Well done! Keep it up!
