Poisson Chat [Cat and Fish] is an oil painting on cardboard, executed with soft, layered brushstrokes that create a velvety, almost dreamlike surface. The composition features a large white cat draped over the rim of a round glass bowl, its body rendered in luminous whites and cool greys that blend gently into the background. Inside the bowl, a vivid orange fish swims against the muted tones, providing a striking point of color and contrast.

The mood of Poisson Chat [Cat and Fish] is tender, curious, and quietly whimsical. The cat’s posture suggests a mix of fascination and languor, while the bright little fish appears to glide untroubled in its small world. The scene feels suspended in a gentle hush, capturing a moment of peace.

This painting will appeal to those who appreciate subtle storytelling, serene animal scenes, and the soft poetry found in everyday encounters. It leaves a gentle, lingering impression, like a fleeting glimpse into a quiet domestic reverie.
