Fuji Commission

You open the door and there they are, tail up, walking straight towards you as if they’ve been waiting all day. This Siamese cat is painted in black watercolour on handmade paper. I don’t often work in just black and white, but this commission was a special request. When Fuji’s human first asked me about a commissioned painting and told me about his energetic character and how he’s always exploring, I suggested an active pose was the perfect way to capture that lively feline spirit. The elegance of this lovely Siamese cat really come through as he walks towards us. Fuji has now made his way across the Atlantic to his new home in New York.
