About This Image

Swimming Cat – Surreal Canvas Print by Mark Tisdale.

This surreal swimming cat canvas print was inspired by observing cats, both my own as well as those of others. I’ve had cats all my life having grown up around them with a mother who came from a family that liked cats and a father who grudgingly learned to love them in his own way. As any cat lover will tell you, cats are characterful little creatures with all their own charms and quirks. It’s hard to lose them but hard to imagine life without them.

I’ve seen my own cats lie with their bellies flat on the floor and their back feet behind them in a most frog-like fashion. Not every cat does this but I’ve had several over the years. How about you? The subject of this swimming cat canvas print, however belongs to a friend. When she shared a photo on Facebook of him lying in this pose, it not only reminded me of some of my own cats over the years, it sparked the inspiration for this artwork. Because it hit me that her cat looked as if he might be swimming. I had a lot of fun creating this. And I feel like the result is quite fun. The sight of this cat paddling through the water with the fish just brings a big smile to my face. Is he fishing or is he practicing his swimming technique with the masters of that particular activity? I’ll leave that to you to decide!

I hope you’ll take a moment to share your thoughts whether they are about this surreal cat art or your own fondness for cats in general. If you’re looking for a print, if you have any questions about purchasing one, don’t hesitate to send me a message. Prints are available in a variety of sizes and formats. You can get anything from a large canvas print, to framed wall art, and, of course, paper prints for framing. Unique art is always a real treat whether it’s for you or a thoughtful gift for, in this case, the cat lover in your life.

Canvas Prints – Product Information

Stretched canvas prints are a great choice for decorating your home or office. Canvas art is a classic choice that is at home in traditional and modern decor alike.

After the purchase of your canvas print, it is made to your order. The artwork is printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas. The use of archival inks and substrate means that your canvas art print should last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.

When ordering your print, you have a choice between glossy and matte finishes. While I ordinarily love matte finishes on prints, I do like the sheen that comes on glossy canvas prints. Ultimately I would suggest letting the amount of light in your space guide your choice. In a brightly lit environment, I would lean towards a matte finish to reduce the chance of glare.

There are three wrap styles to choose from for canvas prints. The mirrored wrap choice mirrors and extends the image to the sides of the canvas wrap (without losing any of the original artwork on the front). The majority of the time I would suggest this is the best choice. The other two options are a solid black wrap or white wrap. You can see a preview of each option when selecting wrap color.

After printing, the canvas is stretched over and secured to a wooden frame of 1.5″ by 1.5″ stretcher bars. The entire production process takes from 5 to 7 business days. Your artwork will arrive in sturdy packaging. The hanging wire will be attached and all hardware necessary to hang your canvas print will be included. Canvas prints are a great ready-to-hang option.
