my father in law (a landscape painter by training & profession) offered me a painting for my birthday - without a beat I said “(our cats) noodle riding pepperpie like a horse, setting is your choice”
the following was just sent to me as an early version
that is just brilliant, I like to imagine that they take turns being the rider
also, this other painting in the link... damn, that's impressive
I hate to be critical, but how is the hat staying on the cat? It's not exactly on their head and there's no little strap holding it around their neck.
It looks like one of those photo op stands with the heads cut out, but with their own bodies in the original image.
