Gatos 1 is a tender graphite drawing on bristol plate, created in 2025. Measuring 14" x 17", the work is unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity issued directly from the artist’s studio.
Rendered with soft, deliberate strokes, this piece captures the quiet companionship of two feline figures. The minimal composition allows the viewer to focus on their expressive eyes and the subtly suggested contours of their bodies, while the high-contrast shading gives depth and character to their fur.
The use of graphite on smooth bristol offers a tactile clarity that enhances the emotive calm of the scene. The unfinished quality around the edges lends an intimate, in-process feeling—like a glimpse into a private moment or the artist’s gentle observation.
Perfect for collectors who appreciate animals rendered with sincerity and nuance, Gatos 1 is a quiet meditation on presence, stillness, and the subtle bond between living beings.
