Paint them at Souk Semmarine
The striped light through the slatted roof falls across your pet like a painted screen. Warm, close, alive.
Those bars of light fall across a coat like brushwork. Nothing we paint is more textural.

The place
Why Souk Semmarine
Semmarine means the blacksmiths. The reed roof was built to keep the sun off the goods, and it has been striping the alley the same way for nine hundred years.
The scene: Slatted roof-light striping the alley. Hanging brass, stacked rugs, dust in the beams.
Same quarter, different light
