masterpiece, a traditional watercolor painting on textured cold-press paper, loose transparent wet-on-wet washes with soft bleeding edges, pigment blooms, visible paper grain and a light graphite underdrawing, depicting a mature male anthro grey wolf with a pale ruff, yellow eyes, a short dark goatee and a contemptuous, heavy-lidded stare. Set in a dim, luxurious private lounge with a gilt-framed portrait painting and a wall lamp behind him, he sits square to the viewer on a cream tufted leather sofa with his thighs spread wide, his chin propped on the curled fingers of one hand while the other hand lifts a glass of red wine by the stem at shoulder height, his bushy grey tail resting on the cushion beside him. A black tailored suit jacket hangs open over a burgundy waistcoat, a white shirt and a black tie, with black trousers and polished shoes, a dark wooden coffee table and a wine bottle in the lower foreground. Framed from a steady frontal medium angle that emphasizes his broad shoulders and the commanding sprawl of his legs. Rendered as a watercolor painting: transparent layered washes, soft bleeding color edges, granulating pigment, white paper showing through the highlights and loose expressive brushwork, in a cool, indulgent, quietly menacing atmosphere.
