Star Cat

In the middle of a harsh Siberia winter I was driven to make this nostalgic fantasy picture of a cat staring at a starry summer sky from the roof of my old house in Ukraine. Growing up I used to sit on that roof with a neighbor friend, watching clouds and eating sweet pears straight from an old tree that grew over the house. They were the best tasting pears I had ever eaten. Neighborhood cats used that tree to climb onto the roof as well, and we didn’t mind one another’s company.
