Garfield - painting study

Happy Monday! Know who doesn't like Monday's? ...Well, many people, actually - but especially Garfield! (Despite the fact he has no work, school or volunteer commitments, but I digress.)

This is another painting study I did. This time of a Garfield toy sculpture. The light source is from a small flashlight. I held it at different angles of interest and took many reference photos. (No, I did not paint it from life in the dark - haha.) I liked this view: the lighting (like he's being interrogated) along with his smug face. This was only intended as a study, but I liked where it was going and decided to really polish it.
