Story behind
One day my elder son said to me, “Mom, the paintings you draw are all cats and dogs. They will not be powerful heroes however nicely you portrait them. They are tiny and weak.” What my son said was not totally wrong. But what he has not understood yet was that sometimes body size does not determine how strong one is. The mind does.
Many years ago when I visited Thailand, I saw a tiny cat fending off a pack of wild dogs in the street. The scene was overwhelming. To overcome obstacles, having a strong body is certainly advantageous, but a strong mind is what defeats the enemy. In this painting, I externalized the powerful mind of the cat. I hope anyone who sees the painting will applaud him for his fearlessness and perseverance. ¡Well done little cat!
