A kitten lies curled up on her front paws sleeping. She is black and white with stripes on the darker parts. The inspiration for this work was my own little pet tiger, but others will also recognise themselves in it; the endearment of looking at your sleeping pet. It is a collaboration, by the way, as Mina, my kitty has added a finishing touch to the work. The atmosphere is one of security and cosiness. The image should radiate warmth and calm, as cats certainly do at a time like this. Pets add a lot to our lives and it is amazing how much trust they put in us and how much love they give us. The technique is fineliner on paper. This is a beautiful work to have on your wall as an animal lover. Especially cabinet people will be very happy with it, I think!
My work distinguishes itself by strong colours and clear shapes. I work with ecoline, ink and pencil, but I also like to cut and paste.
