Darcy curled on the Chair

When Darcy is contentedly Asleep in his chair he curls up and then seems to turn himself inside out, presumably so that his underside can soak up the warmth of the sun. He then seems like a wheel of wonderful colours and exotic markings that are subtly different from the tiger stripes of the upright version. I find great solace in exploring and painting this, it is like a comfort food!
