If a fish

“If a fish is the movement of water embodied, given shape, then a cat is a diagram and pattern of subtle air.”

Doris Lessing (1919 -2013)

Illustration by Endre Penovac

Subtle air, yes. I LOVE that cat watercolor! What skill! Or ink, but it’s done wet-on-wet, and that’s so hard to control. Penovac captured a cat’s air-personality!

I love the softness on the edges of its fur. Well done.
