These paintings were done with oil on paper using a "Dry Brush" technique. Oil dry brush is a painting technique where a paint brush is relatively dry but still holds paint. A very thin layer of color is applied to a paper. 

Dry brush is layered layer after layer and reworked with an eraser, at this point it is possible to incorporate different lighting effects and details. Images painted with a dry brush appear very similar to a photo.

It is not an easy technique which requires a lot of time to learn and master.

    The eyes are beautiful - well, the whole animal is but the eyes really pull my focus. This must take forever to do - they're so detailed.

    I love them all - but this one appeals to me in particular. Looks all soft.

    In fairness the lion does look like he's pulling a 'disgusted face'.

    Where's the light source(s) coming from? The cats are next to each other but the tabby has dilated pupils. It looks like it's on drugs.

    I'm surprised this wasn't voted higher. Very lifelike and the two cats look VERY appealing. Love how different their eyes are.
