Painting A Beautiful CAT While Obsessing Over BIG BRUSHES

[@jennifersmith3245]

OMG I am in tears. Last march I had to put down my 17 yr old best friend, Mocha. Ever since then I have been wanting to paint a portrait of her and have been searching the internet for a tutorial to help me do so. I have not found one that I felt looked enough like her until today, Your portrait looks just like my Mocha. Do u have the full length lesson for this particular painting and if so how do I access it. Beautiful work

I’m so sorry for your loss of Mocha! I have the full tutorial inside my painting membership called The Wildlife Painting Academy, there is a link in the description of this video if you are interested!

You definitely should! They’re a lot of fun to create art of 😊

@@DanielleTrudeauStudios been gathering some reference photos ☺️ any rule of thumb before I venture into this unknown territory?

[@DanielleTrudeauStudios]

Go in with an open mind, keep your reference photos close by and have fun! 😄

I love to use my left over pigment that sinks to the bottom of my jars filled with gamsole. That way i feel like im not wasting any paint. I aso like to use that for my underpaintings.

What size brush do you use for the whiskers? I have a beautiful St Bernard and handsome pittie I’m going to try to paint this week. BTW, great painting! Love the realism you pull off.

[@DanielleTrudeauStudios]

I personally use anything smaller than a size 3 for round brushes for whiskers, though I find these easiest to do with a long liner brush! 😊

[@AvoYeo]

May I know what are the colors you use on the cat? Many thanks ❤

[@DanielleTrudeauStudios]

Sure! Here’s the list: Ivory Black, Titanium White, Burnt Umber, Burnt Sienna, Prussian Blue 😊

Would love to be able to join & become a member just to paint this beautiful Himalayan cat..❤ But unfortunately I just can’t afford to… 😢

I hate glazing, it makes a painting so dark and removes all detail progress😢 it also really doesnt work om canvas due to the structure of it. I Tried but I will stick with applying colors directly.
