Description
En garde, Monsieur Le Chat!
While practicing his new sport of fencing at home, our grandson had an unexpected foe. Their cat decided that the waving tip of the foil was a wonderful new game.
Have at thee, churl!
I did 'move' them out of the house and onto a proper mocation for their sport in this watercolor...

Since I posted an image of fencing that I took several years ago its the right thing to post a comment as asked from the organizer ... very funny from the cat to play with him , nice watercolor

Merana, what a delight! I never really took a fancy to fencing, but you have stabbed my heart with this one! I know it is a very disciplined sport: exacting, refined, graceful. You caught the essence but more than that, the excitement of the challenge! Kitty is very brave and ready to duel! LOVE LOVE

This is so fun, Merana! Great re-imagining of your grandson's "foe"! I foresee this being a family favorite of your work for a lifetime!

Bright, joyful representation of the joy of fencing art for a child- whimsy, power, position and innocence- wonderfully illustrated here! Excellent all over LF
