MYTH, NATURE, CATS, SYMBOLISM
'ORIENTAL GEMS' DIAMOND, EBONY & CINNABAR'
OIL ON CANVAS
36" X 24" INCHES

THIS WORK DEPICTS ORIENTAL SHORTHAIR CATS SET WITHIN A NOCTURNAL PYRAMIDAL LANDSCAPE. THE ETHEREAL NATURE OF THESE FELINES EVOKE A SOMEWHAT EXTRA-TERRESTIAL DIMENSION, THAT LINKS TO THE MYTHIC MYSTICISM THAT RESONATES WITHIN ANCIENT CULTURAL PARADIGMS.

THE HIGH REGARD FOR CATS IN ANCIENT EYGPTIAN COSMOLOGY AS DEPICTED WITHIN THE SYMBOLISM OF SCARED ARTIFACTS AND RITUALS, MAY OFFER IMAGINATIVE ATTRIBUTES REGARDING THESE ORIENTAL FELINES.
