This painting depicts a loving mother cat resting a bit after taking care of her three little kittens. While sleeping, the mother cat's young ones were on the lookout.

A regal representation of the "Dalagang Filipina," a term used for Filipino women praised for their modesty, elegant composure, and poised demeanor; this painting portrays such character. Beautifully dressed in a "Maria Clara" gown of intricate lacework and embroidery, she poses outdoors on a veranda with such noble air yet with sentimental depth in her gaze and warmth in her smile. 

A lovely scene from my favorite garden in Tagaytay
