In this creation, I've endeavored to capture a moment that speaks both to the harmony of nature and the enigmatic kinship between humans and felines. The serene backdrop contrasts with the undeniably curious gaze of the cats, symbolic guardians in this tranquil realm. Acrylic and oil merge with lacquer, giving life to a scene that invites contemplation. Ah, if only to enter the country where cats reign. There are no wars there because cats are self-sufficient creatures unlike humans. For texture on the primed canvas before painting, a layer of textured paste with small glass particles is applied and then sanded with sandpaper for smoothness. Dutch acrylic paints Amsterdam and Italian canvas tm Unico were used. Finish - satin varnish. The ends are painted in the background color. Series "Life in Avatar". Created on and shipped on a pre-stretched canvas on a wooden frame. Painting is packed very carefully in cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap to protect it. Artwork is signed.
