About Cat Under the Swirl

An orange cat sits with its back to you on a dark hill, watching the sky turn. Above, a great Van Gogh swirl of yellow, turquoise and rose fills the night; below, a town flickers with tiny lights under a tall black cypress. The cat does not move. Neither will you, for a while.

The composition sets one warm shape against everything cool. The cat is built from dense dabs of amber, rust and gold, its tail curled around its feet, its head turned just enough to show an ear and whisker. The sky above it is the performance: a huge spiralling vortex of lemon and teal ringed with glowing star-roundels and two heavy yellow moons, painted in short impasto strokes that give the whole night a mosaic texture. The cypress leans in from the left like a dark flame, and the rooftops below scatter orange, pink and blue.

For cat lovers this is the definitive oil painting of a cat: no cute, all atmosphere. Hang it above a sofa, a bed or a reading chair — anywhere you sit facing it. It is a one-of-a-kind oil painting that suits both deep blue rooms and warm wood interiors, and the orange cat keeps it from ever feeling cold.

Size, wall and framing

Every canvas ships rolled in a rigid tube, gallery-wrapped and ready to hang, or in a floater frame from the swatches above. Change the size here and the room preview above updates to match.

Size and price

Canvas sizes before framing — a floater frame adds about an inch per side. Every size is painted to order at the price shown; there is no quote to wait for.

Caring for the painting

Hang indoors out of direct sun and away from humidity; dust with a soft dry brush, lightly, since the mosaic-like impasto strokes stand in relief. Never use household cleaners — the archival oils need only dry dusting and a kind wall.

Questions

Questions buyers ask about this piece

It is both, and neither is an accident: the swirling sky, star-roundels and cypress quote Van Gogh's language, while the seated cat is the painting's own idea. An original composition, painted by hand, one of one.
Yes — the artist signs the canvas, and a photo of the finished painting including the signature is emailed to you before it ships.
The night blues and the cat's orange are painted in opaque impasto strokes, so they hold true under most home lighting; the sky's turquoise is a touch deeper in person. The pre-shipment photo confirms the real thing before you commit.

Yes. The sizes on this page are the standard ladder, but any proportional size can be made — send the wall dimensions and we will confirm the exact canvas and price the same day. There is no surcharge for a non-standard size, only the normal price step.

By card or PayPal in US dollars, against a proper invoice from Shenzhen Adam Art Co., Ltd. Nothing is charged before you approve the mock-up (for a commission) or the photograph of the finished canvas (for a reproduction). Payment is settled in full against one invoice — there is no checkout button because the painting does not exist yet — your enquiry is the order, and the invoice comes before any payment.

A print reproduces the image; it cannot reproduce the surface. Brush ridges, the slight variation of each stroke and the way oil catches raking light are what make a painting read as a painting across a room — and they are exactly what a flat print loses. Every piece here is painted by hand on canvas, signed, varnished, and shipped with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.

Yes — that is the point of commissioning rather than ordering stock. You receive two progress photographs while it is being painted, then a photograph of the finished canvas with one free round of adjustments. Nothing is dispatched until you are happy with what you have seen.

Painting takes three to five weeks, then three to five business days in transit, tracked and insured. Rush delivery (three weeks, painting included) is available for $90. The price on this page is $381.65 for the smallest size — larger sizes and extra subjects step up on the published ladder, so there is no quote to wait for.
