This is our Hunter sleeping on his favorite blanket. Several years ago, I painted him from the same reference photo, so this is another version and I like this one better. Doesn't he look happy?Older cats sleep a lot, maybe 20 hours or more a day. Hunter is now 14 years old. I'm thankful that he is quite healthy other than his chronic asthma for which he uses his inhaler twice a day with my help.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I think he looks content - I love it. Reminds me of our new kitty:)
A very sweet sleeping portrait of Hunter. I had no idea how much older cats sleep!
Such amazing detail Akiko. Having done his portrait and studied his face so closely, I have a special place in my heart for Hunter.
I want to live at your house! I can't imagine anyplace in the world where I'd be allowed to sleep 20 hrs./day! :) Gorgeous portrait of Hunter, Akiko!
he is adorable and love this pose!
Hunter looks so sweet and happy! My cat Boomer is 16 and sleeps a lot, but she does like to get up to check on things and sit on my lap.
Akiko!
Fantastic job on Hunter's coat! So much detail and care went into painting his fur!
Love the sleeping pose too!

Akiko, love the detail, you do fur so well. Such a contented looking kitty!
Amazingly detailed work! Very nicely done!
Although I have never met Hunter, he holds a special place in my heart. I treasure the painting of him I have.
Your Hunter looks like my Harry - aren't Ginger kitties so full of personality? You are very sensitive and, obviously a kind person. I love your work, and wish you every success!
