Dragon Press Graphics -2002 Commissions :<p> Mohammeds' Cat

This is Mohammeds cat done in Oil Pastels. For some reason, I couldn't manage to get the golden tones INTO the cats fur.

I have dark brown, bright yellow and bright orange and peach...and I used all those colors in varying combos (plus the white) and it STILL wouldn't work. All in all, despite my problems, I still think it looks pretty good

Unfortunatly, He didn't like it. But as I told him when I started the project, if he didn't like it, he didn't have to buy it. That way, no customer of mine gets stuck with artwork they didn't like. I don't want a customer to feel unsatisfied with their commission.

Sadly, he didn't want me to try again. Happily, I Did find another buyer for the work. In fact, I had another buyer before the day was out! How's THAT for good luck? It may - in fact - have been predestined that he would not like the image, so that this other person could have a chance at it, since the buyer (my friend Snack) insisted that it looked exactly like his cat!
