Subway Cat: An Oil Painting in Transit

An oil painting-style scene of a calm cat on a subway platform. Thick impasto brushstrokes and rich textures on canvas. The cat, a brown tabby with amber fur and bright green eyes, sits near the edge of the tiled platform. Fluorescent station lights cast a cool blue-green glow with warm highlights on the cat's fur. In the background, a coming train and softly blurred commuters create motion, painted as impressionistic silhouettes. Color palette includes deep blues, teals, ochres, and grays; wet platform reflections and polished rails add realism. The mood is quiet and contemplative amid urban rush, with painterly charm that blends late 19th/early 20th century realism with modern urban impressionism.
