Bridge Building with Kittens

The Oak Grove Bridge painting number eleventy billion is in progress, in spite of all the distractions.

These paintings want to be finished, but the bridge is taking precedence now.
This is how we last saw the bridge.
I am filling in the rest of the blank parts, a little at a time. (That sounds stupid: how else would I do it? With a paintbrush in each hand??)
Look! A kitty is sleeping on my scarf behind me.
Slowly taking shape, but definitely will need more layers. No “alla prima” for this one!
Who are you? I can’t tell without seeing if you have a tail or not.
Keep painting and stop going ga-ga over the kitten. Maybe I will go ga-ga over the painting instead. This is a work day, after all.
What? You prefer the mat beneath my feet to the scarf? This might be the tail-less KitCarson.
Nope, that’s a tail. Could be Georgia, or maybe it is the nameless other one. Look at the zebra-like striping!
At the end of the painting session, needing to dry for awhile before the next layer is added.

The painting had a few days to dry, because Trail Guy and I went on a road trip. I’ll show photos from the windshield tomorrow.
