Here we are! And for /u/Foublanc too. I added a description based on what I remember from the conversation I had with the artist in 2004.

Cat dreaming of dragons https://imgur.com/gallery/oR7W9pH

>The artist (hard to make out, but i think it's Nik Maxwell) told me he painted this when he was in a difficult relationship. He's on the right, a skeleton on the sidelines with half his face missing. His girlfriend dominates the frame and has her own demon sucking the life out of her (obsession with her appearance). His cat is sleeping on the bed, dreaming of being the dragons above and below.

That is extremely impressive. It’s really interesting how he moved everything with (seemingly) the most emotional value to the side and left the cat dreaming as the focal point. Thanks for sharing!
