And here is Snowi - officially Shael Hayit Snowfox. He is a gorgeous white Turkish Angora with gooseberry green eyes.
This is a gouache painting on board.
Brigitte, Snowi's Purrson, told that Snowi loves to sit in the garden in front of the ferns and so I painted those behind Snowi. Brigitte loves poppies, so I painted those on the right. In the back there is a Moroccan window grille- And the frame is inspired by a Victorian floral frame.
