Description
This was my first oil painting, that I would consider art, done when I was 12. I found a small picture in a magazine and basically copied it. Nothing about it is original, but I remember being very happy with the results. I loved big cats way back then and still do. And instead of signing the front, I signed the back. :o) I uploaded this to my gallery for My Very First Art contest, and it is not for sale.

Carol, well done and congrats on winning "My very first Art" contest. Your talent appears to have definitely appeared at a very early age. It is a wonderful rendition of a cheetah :) I would also like to thank all the participants. It was a hard contest and the jury panel also deserves a round of applause. Carol is featured on our group home page " Born to Create".

Copying or not, at 12 years of age, you have tremendous talent, Carol.
Carol Cavalaris replied:
Thanks so much, Sharon. I just fell in love with the painting and wanted to see if I could create something similar. Of course the artist's original was far superior to my copy, but it was so fun to do.

Carol at 12 I was still drawing stick figures lol. This is amazing....a nice glimpse at the beginnings of a truly talented artist.

Carol, this is amazing. This illustrates the special foundation for art you were blessed with. Thank you so much for your comments on my pictures.

Thank you very much, Dale. I can't remember a time in early childhood when I wasn't drawing or painting something.
