A Miniature for Eden

She is amongst the most beautiful cats I have ever had the joy to paint.

Portrait of Asha

Asha is a Siberian Forest cat, the National Breed of Russia.

It is a natural breed and has been in existence for hundreds of years.

Asha belongs to Eden and her family, and is the latest model for my paintings.

She is amongst the most beautiful cats I have ever had the joy to paint.

I was instantly inspired by her exceptionally warm personality, and the soft silky muted blends of her long fur.

This is my first painting of Asha; a miniature for Eden, so that she will have her image for ever.
