Artist's Comments

This is a picture of Saila having a drink of water out of the faucet (she's such a spoiled cat). Actually quite a pain to get. I had to take around 150 pictures (she moves fast) to get one that looked balanced.

*Edit* I did a slight contrast adjustment as I still saw a tiny bit of gray. The adjustment was very slight and almost unnoticeable, but it was just something that was bothering me.

*Edit 2* I had a conversation with foolhound about matting the piece, and went with the matte you see now. I am very happy with the way it came out and it now looks complete to me. A special thanks to foolhound for her advice.

Thanks. I'm glad I was able to get at least one out of the many that looked good.

I'm sure the other were cute in their own right, but this one definatly is something else. It's cool how your cat looks like he (?) is about to bite the water, not lick it.

Yeah, but I didn't really like the tongue (which looks long as hell) sticking out all the way in those other pictures.

Thanks for the comment.

BIG KITTY NOSE!!
Really cool picture.

Kinda subtle, but I love how the cat has one black whisker among all those white whiskers.
