Cats, original watercolour paintings, two, painted & signed by the artist C. J. Strudwick (photograph 1). The painting on the left (photograph 1), shows a cat with red / brown & white coloured fur, standing on it's hind legs against a fish bowl (photographs 2 & 3). The cat has red / brown stripes, & it's green coloured eyes are staring at the fish inside the fish bowl. Sitting a little behind the fish bowl is another, possibly older cat, with grey & white fur, & gold coloured eyes. This cat is watching the cat in the foreground, standing against the fish bowl. Apart from some grey shading around the two cats & the fish bowl, for shadow, the background of the painting is white. The artist has signed his initials 'cjs' in the bottom right hand corner (photograph 3), & the painting is displayed within a rectangular cream coloured border (photograph 2).

The painting on the right (photograph 1), shows a cat with red / brown & white fur sleeping in the foreground (photographs 4 & 5). There is a possibly younger cat, with grey & white fur, resting on the back of the cat in the foreground. This cat has one eye shut, & the other watching a butterfly flying nearby. The butterfly has yellow wings with four red spots, of two different sizes. Both cats are lying in front of a pot plant with weeping leaves & branches. Apart from some grey shading around the two cats, for shadow, the background of the painting is white. The artist has signed his initials 'cjs' in the bottom right hand corner (photograph 5), & the painting is displayed within a rectangular cream coloured border (photograph 4).  

The backs of the paintings have been taped onto their borders (photograph 6), with the back of each border having been signed 'C. J Strudwick' (photographs 7 & 8). The signature on the back of the border, for the painting of the two cats & the fish bowl, includes a smiley face (photograph 7). The back of each painting's border also includes a rectangular gold coloured sticker, which reads 'ORIGINAL WORK BY COLIN STRUDWICK' (photographs 7 & 8). 

The bottom right side of the border for the painting of the two cats & the fish bowl, has a slight tear (photograph 2), as well as one corner of the gold coloured sticker, on the back of the border for the painting of the two cats & the butterfly (photograph 8).
