Contemplation

Suli ate rat poison and disappeared. I cried and cried and cried and tried to resign myself to him having died a slow and painful death. Three months later as I was getting out of bed in the dim predawn, there he was looking at me. I painted this 6 foot tall pastel painting as a celebration for his miraculous return. Personally I think this super-friendly cat had been abducted and incarcerated in a house because he loves his garden and would never leave. Since he won't tell me his story, it shall remain a mystery and I'm thrilled to have him back and in good health.
