Expressionist Linocut Woman and Cat

A dramatic Expressionist linocut print on raw, ink-textured paper. A young woman sits with her eyes closed, her posture serene. A black cat is curled protectively around the back of her neck, its body a sweeping crescent of bold, carved lines. Her hair and the cat's fur intertwine, becoming a single, unified mass of dark, aggressive strokes. The background is a dense, high-contrast block print texture composed of layered deep teal and stamped metallic gold ink blocks. Visible chiseled wood grain marks create a halo effect around her head. Strong graphic energy, primitive and powerful artistic style. stray cat tail --ar 9:16
