"In the Box" - acrylic painting ©Mary Montague Sikes |
This is a 20" x 20" acrylic painting on stretched canvas. I probably will not do another canvas painting this large for the challenge because larger paintings take more time. This is nearly four times the size of the Bunny and Gator paintings which were each 11" x 14". I'll probably do some paintings soon using pastels on paper.
Thank all of you who are visiting my blog. I appreciate the founders of the Blog Challenge and am enjoying the opportunity to participate.

You are mighty talented. What a cute cat!
Aww, this is so touching. I know how hard it is to say goodbye to a beloved cat. Beautiful painting and tribute. <3
Thank you for doing a painting for the beautiful Casey-cat! What a sweet painting it is!
You are so talented!!
Megan, thank you. She was a beautiful cat!
Julie, this was an emotionally difficult painting to create. Thank you for visiting.
Amy, you are so welcome. I painted it for you if you want it.
Sharon, thank you.
Impressive...a painting a day? That IS something to tout.
Best of luck with it throughout the month!
I am always in awe of people who have artistic talent. Especially since I can't draw a straight line on an Etch-A-Sketch.
Instead of a cat in the hat, it's the cat in a box! Very nice, Mary.
Very sweet, Mary! My son's name is Casey. We thought it was a wonderful name because it means "brave."
What a sweet kitty!
Frida Kahlo wants me to let you know that she is very busy with mouse patrol right now, but after she gets that taken care of, she is available for a sitting.

Al, thank you. I love the profile painting you use.
Alex, I didn't have a cat in the hat photo of Casey. Would have been interesting.
