Marie and Max were visiting their friend, the painter. "He'll be here soon, please wait at the studio," they were told. The floor was wet and on the easel stood a painting with exquisite strokes of blue and green. Max started explaining to Marie, "See the furry pattern at the centre? That must signify fauna. The green around is... obviously flora. The brushstrokes indicate..." Just then the painter entered, "Sorry about the mess. I had laid the blank canvas on the floor and Henri rolled all over the paint and the canvas. Naughty cat! I was just cleaning up."

Not a big fan myself of paintings that look like the cat or the dog or whatever made it.

Cute! I wonder if they would have felt as impressed if they knew from the beginning. It's interesting how our assumptions shape our impressions.

A feline masterpiece. Might fetch a fortune at auction.
