This 12" x 10" drypoint etching by Regina Murphy depicts the side profile of a beloved domestic cat's head. The head is facing to the left and the facial expression is stoic. Each hair of the cat's head is defined, adding to the detailed effect the artist employs with the drypoint. The background behind the cat's head is blurred with cross-hatching that is more concentrated in the upper-left hand corner of the composition while the smudged shading fills the rest of the background.
The etching is titled "Cat" and is signed by the artist in pencil. The etching is framed and matted.
The artist, Regina Murphy, is from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Murphy was also a founding partner of Studio Six, an art studio and gallery in Oklahoma City’s Paseo Arts District. Murphy’s art is featured in many collections throughout the United States.
