'Art vs the artist': 21 Creative cats who are the talent, the muse, and the MEOWsterpiece

Is your cat an artist?

That is a rhetorical question, because the answer is obviously, yes! Everything they do is art. They don't even need inspiration, they are the inspiration! And every piece is a meowsterpiece. Yes, I said MEOWsterpiece! That is better than a masterpiece, imo. What? You think an original Pablo Picasso is better than that scratched-up scratching post your cat has been working on? Ha! Then you have no taste. Even these cat memes are meownificent!

“Paint me like one of your French girls.” How about painting me like a majestic cat who has been worshipped for centuries? That sounds more creative to me. Not just a body, but a feline friend who moves so gracefully and looks the most adorable before they POUNCE. Heck, I'll even take it if you paint me into a cat meme. That has more LOLs.

Imagine this: The most adorable cat with a paintbrush in their tiny little mouth, whiskers covered in non-toxic paint. They look at you, meow with excitement, and dip their brush into some color and start painting you. A portrait of you from the best (and cutest) artist to ever exist! That sounds like a dream and most likely is, but a lovely dream nonetheless. There has to be a meme depicting that too, somewhere.

If I were a cat who could paint, oh who dark and mysterious my paintings would be. You would think you're looking at a cute kitten taking a nap, but when you turn it upside down, it's actually a cat pouncing on an unsuspecting mouse. Depth, suspense, curiosity, darkness, that would be my cat artist alter ego.
Would you paint like that if you were a cat who could paint? Or would you go more Kawaii path, or realism, or cubism? It honestly doesn't matter, you're going to be a genius in any genre you choose! And the cutest person with a paintbrush in their mouth. And believe me, you will not be the only living artist to put a paintbrush in their mouth. In fact, do you know how many times I've accidentally dipped my brush in my coffee or wine inside the designated water? Too many frustrating times… If I were a cat, though, it would never happen. And if it did, it would be turned into a meme and worshipped!
