Untitled (Reclining Figures with Cats)
Ink and wash on paper
Two reclining figures accompanied by their feline companions are rendered with graceful contour lines and translucent washes, creating a composition of quiet intimacy and balance. Alan Wood-Thomas distills each form to its essential rhythm, allowing generous negative space to enhance the sense of serenity and connection. The work reflects the artist's gift for finding elegance in everyday moments through an economy of line and subtle tonal variation.
Verso stamped: Atelier III Mouffetard, identifying one of the Paris studios where Wood-Thomas worked during his formative years. The studio stamp provides an important link to the artist's early European period and contributes to the work's provenance.
