Velvet Stare

Up close, her eye is a universe—deep green, ringed in black, holding galaxies of calm and curiosity. Purple bleeds behind her like twilight, soft yet commanding, cradling her in a dream of velvet and light. Her whiskers reach out like questions, her nose a tiny pink anchor in a sea of colour. Every brushstroke sings: blue, red, teal, white—all dancing together in joyful harmony. This is intimacy rendered in pigment, a moment frozen where wonder meets warmth. The artist doesn’t just paint a cat—they capture the soul behind the gaze, the quiet magic, in a blink. A piece that whispers rather than shouts, perfect for spaces that breathe with soul.
