Black Cat Wall Art Occult Cat Metal Sign

Black frame, and a sunset inside.

The border does most of the work here: matte black scrollwork, flowers and curling vines cast around an arched opening, corner pieces built up thick. Inside sits a black cat, upright and calm, green eyes level with yours. A small white sun drops behind him through an orange and gold sky, and the field around him has already gone dusk-grey.

Cream lilies and pale orange blooms crowd the lower half, leaves overlapping his chest, thin grasses catching the last of the light. The cat is pure silhouette apart from those eyes and the sheen along his back, and the flowers keep their color as the sky behind them cools. The carved frame and the depth behind the arch are printed onto one flat panel.

Put it portrait in an entryway or beside a mirror, where the black border can sit against a lighter wall. It reads more folk art than Halloween, so it stays up all year. An obvious gift for someone whose own black cat has no portrait yet.
