A tabby cat with white chest markings sits upright against a cream background, mouth open in a fierce hiss or yawn that reveals its pink tongue and teeth. The illustration employs fine cross-hatching and line work to render the cat's striped coat and alert expression with dramatic intensity. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
