American Shorthair Cat Art Print, Signed Limited Edition Watercolor

A silver tabby American Shorthair looking at you with two yellow-green eyes, the classic swirled stripes painted in slate, indigo and grey over a pale coat, with pink inside the ears and on the nose. The whiskers are fine white lines and there are a few blue and orange dots above the head. It is a portrait format and one of the most naturalistic of my cats. The Exotic Shorthair is its flat-faced cousin.

The original watercolor painting is listed separately: see the original American Shorthair cat painting.

Why it is a limited edition

Each print is made in an edition of 150, and I sign and number every copy in pencil under the image. The edition is small so that every copy can be made properly: the file is scanned from the painting itself, printed on museum-quality cotton paper with archival pigment inks, compared with the original in daylight and corrected until the colours match, and only then signed. When the last copy is sold, the edition closes for good.

Paper, inks and sizes

• Archival pigment inks on acid-free, museum-quality watercolor paper, so the texture of the original is kept

The frame is not included unless the option says Framed Canvas. Not sure which size fits your wall? Write to me with the width of the furniture under it and I will suggest one. Reproduction rights remain with the artist.
