Description
Yellow bronze. Looks like gold, doesn't it?For wax version -> [link]
Some changes, most important is the addition of one eye. (I felt it needed a point of focus.)
Still a work in progress. Couldn't wait to submit it. I need some encouragement. My family doesn't like it much.
Approx 2 kg. (4,4 lb)
UPDATE: final result [link]

haha, it would probably be too expensive for me

Good question. No answer still.
As I mentioned it's a work in progress. I'm not pleased with the inside of the cat and the base.
In the meantime I've handled the inside with 'sulphur liver' to blacken it, was not content, sandblasted it and attacked it with an abrassive drill.
I'll remove the bronze base tomorrow and replace it propably with stone, like belgian black marble.
So, I'll know the prize when it's finished. I'll note you then, if you want.
But it will be heavy, thus expensive to ship. Your profile doesn't mention your country.
Anyway. Your genuine interest in buying is the ultimate compliment. Thank you.

Excellent work. The yellow brass left the piece with a noble look.
Congratulations.

I love that you thought about every angle and made the sculpture look like a graceful cat whichever way you look at it. Great Job!

"Capture the grace of a cat", that was the task I'd set to myself. Your comment is proof I succeeded. (At least for some viewers, hehe)
So you made the ultimate compliment. Thank you so much.

One of the more interesting animal sculptures I have ever seen (and I am permanently watching artworks since numerous years!).
This one not only features the cat grace but the versatility of his apparence body, light presence almost transparent but also proud and always mysterious.
I love it
congratulations

A terrific compliment. Just what i needed. Thanks.
Are you familiar with the work of your fellow countryman, the late François Pompon? His great animal sculptures are an inspiration to me.

Pompon, my preferred one is (of course) the famous "white bear"
