Today’s ambitious plan: remain comfortable. Comfy as can be by Marie Brown S.O.F.A. gives a ginger and white cat a subject perfectly suited to a feline expert in resting. There is very little here to suggest the afternoon needs improving.
The cat lies stretched out with eyes closed, a white paw reaching forward and warm ginger markings carrying the eye along the relaxed body. It is an ordinary pose, but one that cat lovers can recognise instantly: someone has found the right place and settled the matter.
Painted in watercolour, the portrait makes room for the simple pleasure of a cat at ease. There is no grand adventure to explain, just the appeal of a familiar animal enjoying a moment without hurry.
The painting measures 20 by 29 centimetres and is supplied mounted. If your favourite feline portraits are the ones that make a room feel a little calmer, this contented companion is worth a closer look.
