It would be criminal to keep this to myself any longer. This is the painting that Andreas made for me as an Xmas present, and man do I love it! No, your eyes don’t deceive you. It is indeed a cat sitting on a toilet. Cocoa to be precise. She’s always been fascinated by water and used to play in it when she was a kitten. She prefers to keep her distance these days, but is still curious. Every morning when I take a shower, she sits on the toilet tank and listens to the sound while staying near me as she always is. Cheesy as it sounds, every time I pull back that curtain and see her waiting for me, I feel loved. Andreas managed to take that feeling and solidify it into a work of art. With all that considered, Cocoa on the toilet is still a quirky subject for a painting, and that makes me like it all the more since it’s so personal. I’m crazy about the colors too, and the reflection/shadow on the tiles. Only Andreas could have made something so well suited to me which shows just how well he knows me, and reminds me of why I love him so much.
