Description
Step into a moment of quiet contemplation with this evocative drawing by Matthew Allton. Rendered in charcoal pencil and white pastel pencil on grey toned Ingres paper, the piece captures a striking feline portrait with remarkable precision and grace. Each stroke emphasizes the softness of fur, the gentle curve of a whisker, and the thoughtful, almost introspective gaze of the cat - an expression that feels as if it's holding a secret.
Balanced beautifully between shadow and light, this monochrome artwork makes use of negative space to sculpt depth and emotion, allowing the viewer’s eye to wander through texture and tone. Presented behind glass in a black frame with a white mount, the composition is elevated in its elegance, ready to become a centrepiece in any curated space. The mount aperture measure approximately 19 x 19 cms, while the frame measures approximately 33 x 33 cms and is 3cms deep.
Signed by the artist bottom left, this work is a quiet study in presence and poise - an ideal addition for collectors of refined animal portraits or lovers of contemplative realism.
