Pepper, the Postmaster: A Tribute in Van Gogh's Colors

cat painting in oil

Meet Pepper, the most charming little muse to cross my easel recently. His owners wanted a tribute that captured him in the spirit of Van Gogh's postmaster, complete with a beautifully textured backdrop and a blue postman costume inspired by the iconic painting The Postman (Joseph Roulin).

 

 

Pepper, a lovely white cat with delicate grayish markings, posed a unique challenge—how to add Van Gogh’s rich colors to his face without overpowering his soft features? I chose lighter shades of the beard’s colors to bring life to his face, blending tones to keep him looking true to himself yet harmonized with the vivid palette.

This 11x14in piece is bursting with oil paint texture and personality, and I can’t wait to see it framed and bringing Pepper’s warmth to his family once more.
