VERSO
Signed and titled

The artist writes, “The snow leopard, my favourite of all the big cats, partly because of its looks and partly because it is an almost mythical beast. It is a fabulously beautiful cat which lives a solitary existence in mostly inaccessible areas above 10,000 feet in the Himalayas and Altai Mountains. The snow leopard’s fur can be a challenge for an artist to paint but a challenge I relish each time I paint one of these beautiful animals.”
