1302 ‘Molly’ COMMISSION

Artist Code: 1302. Original SOLD. Graphite pencil on Bristol Smooth paper. CompletedDecember 2013. Unframed size: 9” x 12” [No prints].

This picture was a Christmas present for a special partner. The commissioner gave me a few photographs of this beautiful cat, which sadly had died a few months previously. The nicest picture was only about 2” square, but I obviously got it right because the commissioner (and the eventual recipient) was over the moon with it.

Poem:

Oh Molly cat so sweet to see
Hogs the handset for TV
Sitting quiet on coffee table
Although we know she is very able
To spring and catch a bird or two—
Though tinkling bell prevents a few!
