Original artwork description:

This watercolor feels like a quiet winter fairytale—filled with softness, stillness, and gentle warmth amidst the cold. At the center lies a fluffy cat, nestled comfortably in a snowdrift. Its fur is thick and plush, like a cozy cloud, puffed up against the winter chill. The cat has its eyes half-closed in pure contentment, basking in the moment as if savoring the peacefulness of the falling snow.
The snow surrounding the cat is not just a setting but a living, breathing part of the scene. The drift appears fluffy and light, painted with delicate, translucent brushstrokes that suggest softness and depth. There are no sharp lines—everything blends into a dreamy haze, much like how snow blurs the edges of the world.
From above, gentle snowflakes drift down—large, feathery, and weightless. They’re painted with such care that they truly seem to float through the air, swirling and settling quietly onto the cat’s fur and the snow around it. The whole atmosphere is filled with light and a hushed stillness, like the silence of a snowfall.
The palette is subtle and harmonious: whites, soft blues, silvery shadows, and warm, muted browns and ochres in the cat’s fur. The composition feels perfectly balanced—airy, calm, and comforting.
This watercolor isn’t just about winter—it’s about a quiet joy. A moment of pure contentment, captured in the soft fall of snow and the peaceful presence of a cat who knows how to enjoy it.
