Gwennie

Tessa Guze, Gwennie, oil on canvas, 12" x 9"

This is a portrait of my sister's cat Guinevere (Gwennie for short). She is tortoiseshell with a white bib. She can be quite shy and reclusive of everyone except my sister, who she loves and demands attention and back scratches from. Gwennie's expression in this painting is the look she gives my sister when she wants something.

Before I send this painting to my sister it will be on display in the Gwangju International Center, in Gwangju, South Korea. It will be on display from March 10th to April 7th.
