Sphinx cat no. 1 - Chat sphynx no. 1

I have to preface this by sayin… I absolutely adore sphynx cats! That isn’t special really, but it’s my only reason for having painting this piece haha! I saw it on Violet Chachki’s instagram, as this is their cat. I felt in love with this pose which was posted on Eugene’s (the cat’s name) Instagram , laying on their lap with this gorgeous top. I edited out the legs and kept only the cat, as is visible by what I painted. It’s donewith oil paint on a birch plywood panel of 12 inches by 16 inches, prepared with lead alkyd ground.
