Catgrafika

the long version

This is a unique marriage of Actors Talent and a leading Artist who captured in paint the imaginary images of the ''CATS'' show characters. Each having a particular individuality which attracted the leading Artist, Mike Margolis, to bring his easle and paints into a Dressing Room, where between on stage appearances, the Actors would visit Mike and he would paint the image projected by the Actors skill, and translate that 'catch' into the extraordinary results, which trap those moments in time where the Actors ceased to be human and transmuted to a theatrical Felinity. No camera has been able to produce such an extraordinary translation from the Actor to the audience. These paintings have become famous worldwide for that achievement. They are unique and the delicate brushwork has attracted the admiration of many Artists, particularly in China and Japan and the USA.
