"King Jocomo and Queen Martha" by Monica Van der Weer
"This is one of my most recent paintings. Martha, the cat on
the right, is a cat owned by my friend Debbie's mom. I did an earlier portrait
of Martha ("Queen Martha") when she was a much
younger and slimmer cat. Jocomo's mother, Hobo, was a stray that I took into our home after
discovering she was going to have kittens. Jocomo (the large orange cat)
holds court regularly in our home. The idea for this royal portrait was Debbie's. Martha likes to sit
in the armchair in this regal pose. Both cats obviously live a life of
luxury as can be seen by their size (Jocomo and Martha both weigh in at
just under 20 lbs)."
If you love pets, you'll enjoy these paintings.
