I had been researching and exploring using watercolour in a loose style. Having successfully produced a rather nice image of a cow – see Cate – I thought I’d explore putting paint down like like this again. Never happy to sit in comfort, I decided to make things really difficult and try painting a white animal on a white background. I know… you’d have thought I’d have learned my lesson trying to paint snowdrops on white paper earlier that year. Anyway, I’d been intending to paint my cousin’s very pretty, white, fluffy fur baby for a number of months and thought she would be the perfect muse. Here is the outcome from my efforts; introducing Mischa.
