Snow

There are several feline portraits here, and these have often proved to be complicated to paint when the cats' fur was tricoloured or bristly! 

But in this case, as Snow's fur is not only monocolour but also soft and fluffy, the brushwork is simplified. No attempt is made to detail the background, but the red and purple hues help to convey a sense of comfort.

A watercolour of a white cat called "Snow" sitting on a red Turkish carpet, which was painted by William Walkington in 2022.
