Gina Lento: Fine Art and Illustration

November Kitty

It’s getting a lot cooler. It’s brisk and Novembers can be windy. The little witch is still stuck in pilgrim-ville. Kitty doesn’t care. She has lots of things to keep her busy, like apples.

My family got together this evening to celebrate my Aunt’s 85th birthday. I spent a few days working on this portrait of my aunt’s house to give her for her birthday. My cousin took the photos for me and I pieced the house together from the photos. The portrait doesn’t have Kitty. (I added her digitally, after). My aunt opened the gift and looked for Kitty! I didn’t put her in because it was a portrait but I reassured my aunt that I can add Kitty.

This is Kitty added via Procreate. This postcard version will go to my mom. And my Aunt😂.

PS, now would be a good time to ask me for commissions if you would like to give a gift of art for the holidays. It takes me several days to do something like this.

Mischief managed

What has kitty been up to? She brought back some souvenirs from her big game excursion.

Kitty learns a lesson

Trouble is brewing….

Kitty finds some fancy prey

Trying something different. I still have many these premade backgrounds left. They were intended for October but I think they work better for November.

Cat and mouse again

Howdy Pilgrim?

The little witch was practicing her spells and somehow wound up in a 17th century Puritan village. She and kitty are a bit shocked and unfortunately they need to find a 17th century witch to help them.

I left the brush markers behind in the family Florida house that I was using when I started this series. I bought them so I would have markers in Florida. I have Tombows in my studio in NY. The Tombows are giving me some problems and the difference in paper is also creating an issue. I might try different paper tomorrow.
