Cat on Deck
Watercolor
$300.00

Marion's watercolor entitled "Cat on Deck" is an expressive piece with a fun and playful context.  Cats are always a fun subject to put into works of art, with their unexpected and curious demeanor it's always entertaining to catch them in action.  This particular painting offers that sense of action and curiosity very well.  Movement is also a large part of why this work is successful. The technique and clarity of this watercolor is fantastic, with it's vibrant and calming color combination and clean crisp lines it would truly be a great addition to ones collection.    

When you come to check out this work and the other 63 artists in the studio don't forget to get a nice cup of coffee or tea from our Espresso Bar to warm you up on these cold days!
