Purrfect

Felicity strives to capture the essence of a cat’s personality in her quirky drawings. Her works are based on humourous cat poses that every cat owner can relate to. The composition is vital to the success of the image together with the layering of the pastel to give the intense colour to the background and texture to the fur.
Pattern is injected into segments of the image as rugs, cushions or drapery to add interest and as juxtaposition to the shape of the cat. Felicity works from dark to light, usually beginning with black pastel paper. This artist’s inspiration is derived predominantly from her own cats with the occasional guest spot being created for the ‘fur children’ of friends.
