Black Cat Work In Progress

Sorry it's been a while since I posted. I had a portrait that I was going to share and then in my rush to deliver it, I forgot to scan it. *sigh*

Here is a WIP of a new ACEO (art card, editions & originals) that I just listed on Ebay. No black was used in this painting. I mixed my black with winsor green, alizarin crimson and antwerp blue. Though at the end I did add some payne's gray to deepen the darks a bit. Some might say that's the same thing. I used to be a non-black watercolorist but sometimes a touch of payne's gray really helps and I have started using black in my illustrations. It's all good. Whatever works.
