Mona

Artist's Commentary

“Set against a clear cerulean-blue ground, Mona’s green eyes and distinctive black-and-white markings command attention. The close viewpoint and simplified setting emphasise the texture of her fur and the clarity of her silhouette. Contrasts of black, white, green and blue lend the composition clarity and vitality. Treated with the same attentive observation as a human sitter, Mona emerges as an individual presence rather than a decorative subject.”
