Oscar's portrait!

We commissioned Darlene Pucillo (a.k.a. puci) to paint a portrait of our youngest kitty, Oscar. She had painted the portraits of Max, Kitter, and Ebony that decorate the wall of our stairwell. Now we have four portraits of our kitties to greet us as we go up and down the stairs. Below is the progression of the portrait from original photo, through the various mock ups, to the finished piece, details of the finished piece, and its new home in the stairwell.
