[@mariamorjane]

Hi friends 💕☺For those of you that are interested, I offer weekly voiceover tutorials on Patreon www.patreon.com/mariamorjane If you would like to learn more about painting 'wet on wet, 'lifting colors, join a private artist group outside of Patreon (for my students only) etc please join me there💕🙋🏻‍♀To see available classes/tutorials with voiceover/real-time videos, please see this index: www.mariamorjane.com/patreon.html

[@martiwalsh2069]

Watching the eyes come to life was like watching magic! How can dry watercolor look like moist, alive eyes?! Magical.

[@SotR59]

even in watercolor the eyes look real. Amazing work

[@ctwmnpark5664]

Unbelievable talent. Love that you give the tips and colours so we can follow. So many videos don’t have that so you are frustrated.

[@mariamorjane]

Thank you so much😍

[@pathayes6084]

My first two cats were a brother and sister Siamese.They lived to be 19 and passed within 6 weeks of each other. Thank you for painting this lovely tutorial. You have inspired me to paint them.

[@mariamorjane]

aww thank you so much Pat and I am so sorry to hear that.. 💖💖🐈🐈🐱🌹🐈I can't wait for you to start painting them!

[@pathayes6084]

Thank you, Maria. They passed 10 years ago but will always have a space in my heart. I have 3 right now and they constantly provide entertainment. You constantly inspire me and others. I always look forward to your uploads. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent.

[@mariamorjane]

🌸☺️🐱🐈💖

[@constellations9258]

so absolutely wonderful Maria!..............it seems as if "controlled" blooms are working for you to create that wonderful soft texture around Finchen's back and the side of his head..........I love it!.........the expression on the face is perfection..........my Finchen is growing : ).........beautiful

[@mariamorjane]

🌸🤗Thank you so much Jasmine🐈💖I actually painted this when I was preparing my teachable class on painting cats, 🌷🌹I was getting myself ready for talking etc so this was my practice one😋🐱

[@constellations9258]

the class was terrific.........it gives so much important information, and I will return to it for reference on techniques often........I need a lot of practice, and hopefully with time will improve : )

[@mariamorjane]

🌸🤗🐱🌹🐈

[@liliawebb9377]

So soft and furry and a very tricky angle for the muzzle. Well done! My favorite is watching you do the detailing of the eyes and whiskers!

[@mariamorjane]

aww thank you Lilia, you know whiskers and eyes are always my favorite to paint☺️🐈☺️🌹🤗🌸☺️

[@cathyjoerger4676]

Beautiful - one of my favorites! And the timing is perfect as I just now have been preparing to paint a cat portrait for a friend and was not sure how to begin! Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent with us!

[@mariamorjane]

😃Happy to hear this Cathy🐈🌷Happy painting and thank you so much!

[@liliawebb9377]

That is one big ball of furry kitty! You captured the softness very well and it was great seeing you do the eyes!

[@mariamorjane]

🐱🐈💖Thank you Lilia! I appreciate that🤗

[@Silvercowboyhat]

Looks so realistic!

[@mariamorjane]

Thank you Paula☺️

[@crystalheart9]

Beautiful painting of this kitty, I love how softly you handled the fur. Also I like how you handled the background so all the focus is on this beautiful cat. Often times when I get a photo to do a pet portrait, it has a busy odd background that would be a distraction and I have to find a way to simplify it. You did a fantastic job on this.

[@mariamorjane]

☺️🌹Thank you so much 😀

[@LIrons-Gators]

Wow! Amazing.. I just started watercolor not too long ago and was looking to paint this cat as I have the same kitty! Beautiful

Hi Maria...I have been following you on KZbin for a while now...probably 12 months or more and love your tutorials.....I finally enrolled and completed your kitten teachable last week which I loved. My kitty wasn't quite as cute as yours but not too bad.... I love your kittens and cats...(although I am really a dog person) and I love painting eyes.......have watched two of your kitten paintings today and will be joining patreon very very soon.... Love them and you 💕💕💕 you're an inspiration to us novice water colourists...thank you so much 😍

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Pauline🤗☺️🌸thank you so much, I appreciate that and I'm very happy to know you enjoyed my class and also are an animal painter/lover😍btw I almost called my daughter Pauline.. but my husband thought it was too French lol (except that my dad's side of the family is French 😁) well we settled on Aleksandra.

[@pollysplace4320]

Aleksandra is so much more exotic Maria ... you chose wisely 👍

maybe next video you can show us how to paint this same cat or some other thing with cheaper student grade brushes and paint? Because I don’t have all these great supplies and colors, so if you provided alternatives it would make things a lot easier. still beautiful painting as always, so talented you are, Maria!! with every video you provide extreme excellence. fantastic job.

[@mariamorjane]

Hi, thank you so much, I appreciate that. I will soon have a video about using 'camel watercolor'. It may be helpful. For cheaper brushes, pretty much all videos before September 2017 - I was using cheaper brushes: Utrecht, Cotman or Raphael Kaerell. Thanks
