This 16" x 20" acrylic painting on canvas by London-born artist David Crown. It depicts a family of three cats sitting next to a fireplace. The fireplace burns vividly behind them, and the cats each wear a smirk facing the viewer. The diamond pattern of the carpet power clashes with the stripes of the wall and are, stylistically, rather representative of the artist's European heritage. The bright colors and uniquely depicted subject matter create a well-rounded composition.

David Crown was born in London, England, and received his education at Cambridge University, the University of London. He practiced internal medicine until 1982 when he retired. His retirement allowed him to pursue his passion for art full-time. His works are in numerous collections across America, Canada, Japan, and Europe.
