Cats and more cats

Welcome to my Blog





Please enjoy looking at my paintings.
I paint a variety of subjects. This is an example of my feline art in watercolour - a study of my beautiful Balinese boy.







You can find more of my paintings on www.minigallery.co.uk/Lydia_Manship where there are details to contact me. I am happy to paint commissions for your pet and will also paint portraits in a variety of media including watercolour, acrylics, oils and mixed media.

'Ginger Tom Cat' painted in oils and framed. He is painted in an impressionist style. He is a cat with attitude who knows his place in the world. This painting now lives in a private collection and has left a very empty space on my wall. I need to get painting some more.




















Here is a beautiful ginger kitten reclining in a rocking chair. He is created in water colour. He is mounted and framed.










I met this cat on the Island of Rhodes in Greece. She was sitting on the wall of a taverna on the sea front waiting very patiently for a left over piece of tuna fish. She was rewarded for her patience and in return she posed for me to create this watercolour painting. She was pregnant at the time. I hope her kittens thrived and managed to feed as well as her.


This is a sketch of my brothers red boy.
