Blue Boy, a feral kitten in oils by Sandra R Cutrer

Blue Boy is a Russian Blue feral kitten that seemed to get stuck in a small tree near my yard. I ran inside, grabbed my camera (for reference photos) and pulled a ladder out of my garage to get this shot. After several great shots, he flew out of the tree like a flash. I left out food, but he never returned. I've painted him in quality oils on an 8" x 10" professional artist board, ready for your favorite frame!Please scroll down to my listing for more of my work. I love taking commissions, especially for animal portraits. You may contact me at: sandrasart777@aol.com for questions or comments. Thanks for looking at my work and reading my blog.

Portrait painting commission I am working on


The drawing is done and I have added a couple of layers of paint- lots more work to do, though! This portrait is for a lovely young lady (a gift from her loving Mom) who misses her dad. He passed away from cancer- not my favorite word to hear. Many of you know that I lost my only daughter to ovarian cancer. Sadly, dad very recently passed from cancer. My prayers are continually toward a quick discovery of all cancers! My husband and I support Saint Jude and The Ovarian Cancer Research Center.

I hope you will come back and see my progress with this piece. I am working on several pieces and hope to finish several before the holidays are upon me! Wow, time really does fly. It seems like only a month or two has passed since I took down my Christmas decorations from last year!!!
Have a blessed Thanksgiving and thanks for looking at my blog.

Sounds of Paris a city steet scene in oils by Sandra R Cutrer

"Sounds of Paris"

I used one of many photos that I took while in Paris a few years back. My older son and I had a wonderful week running around this glorious city, and I am missing it and wishing I were back there. The sights, the smells, the beautiful museums and so many wonderful people, tons of things to do...

We recently had a death in the family, so I haven't been at my easel for the last week or so.
A death makes me think about life even more than I normally do, and what is truly important. Our lives are so fleeting, so short, "like smoke through a keyhole" or "like a vapor".
Enjoy the people around you, love those you love a little bit harder, and be thankful for the gift of life.

Blessings,
Sandra Reeves Cutrer
