Girl In Vermeer’s Jacket With Pearl The Cat
This original painting is from the Little Guardians Series.
I always had a feeling that something was missing in paintings by Great Masters. For example, on the original Vermeer’s masterpiece, the left bottom corner looks a bit empty. But it's not anymore. I have added a cat as the girl’s defender and guardian. The composition is complete at last.
Do you believe in guardian angels?
According to religious views guardian angels serve to protect and advise whichever person God assigns them to. They are spirits, that can take any physical form they want for a short period of time in order to accomplish the task they are given.
I wonder if YOU could choose a physical form for your guardian angels, who would you pick to protect and defend you? Would you go for a pet, cat, bird, dog or any other animal? These believes aren’t Biblical, of cause, but millions of people truly view animals as their protectors, companions and confidants, as “the guardian angels” in a non-Biblical way.
