In the Studio: Painting in progress

Last week I posted a sketch for another "flying kitty" painting.  I thought this week I would post an in progress snapshot of the painting.  The finished product will be on display in the Be Happy. Dammit. show at Museum Gallery/Gallery Museum, opening this Saturday, February 4.  Also, just for fun, I took some pictures of my palette.  I haven't cleaned it off in a few years.  It's starting to look like a world of it's own, don't you think?  My favorite part is the blue "crater."
