After finding out that Viking women were given cats as bridal gifts, I decided to paint my own version of a Viking woman with her trusty Norwegian Forest Cat. This painting is focused on the textural quality of different materials (such as fur, fabric, wood, gold, etc). This piece is also my attempt to create a realistic depiction of a character, using a variety of references to make her as 'authentic' to what I believe a Viking woman would look like.
