This painting was inspired by a YouTube video (via facebook) of a kitty with a chip bag stuck on its head.
“Kitty Rampant In A Field Of Flowers Chasing A Butterfly With A Baggy On Its Head” (c.2010)
The original painting’s aspect ratio was more-or-less square-ish. I extended the canvas’ width a few years later, adding more background: flower fields; clouds; sky.
The kitty portrayed in the painting, and butterfly chase, was inspired by the kitty I animated in the “award-winning” FlipBook movie short, “The Clyde”.
(BTW: that Clyde animation was made on a 2G iPhone - drawn frame-by-frame.)
