The art of cat...
cat paintings
 
These are on exhibition at the Museu de Trajo, Sao Bras de Alportel, Algarve, Portugal during February and March.  For more information contact the Museum admistrator@amigos-museu-sbras.org

My intent with these paintings is to challenge the conventions of good taste...! many cat paintings are twee and clicheed, or 'chocolate box'.  I hope you will agree that these paintings are not that!  My intent is to paint these subjects in a way which allows their latent wild natures to show through.  And I hope that the paintings can be viewed in terms of their formal qualities too, and not be overtaken by the possible emotive connotation.
