Ashley

This is a watercolor painting of Ashley I did last Friday. She is one of the two cats we adopted after our old cat ,Murphy, died in December last year. We got Ashley, seven years old , and Precious, one year of age from the animal shelter.I have painted Precious in Acrylics and you can see the painting in my other blog vanya'sArtblog.
Ashley is kind of hard to paint because the color of her fur is very specific. It is something between coffee and cream with grayish hew. Otherwise her face is very expressive. She always looks as if she has been startled or scared maybe because of her shy character.
