Laura Mostaghel's stunning paintings, with their Matisse-like quality and masterful sense of color, are in the collections of a long list of notable people, including Hillary Clinton, Tony Blair, Elton John, Prince Charles, Clint Eastwood and Paul McCartney. She had works commissioned for the film "Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood," and Warner Brothers Productions, Inc. has commissioned four of her paintings to be a permanent set scene for the movie "Nights in Rodanthe." This painting captures everything there is to love about her work in the serene quality of this lovely woman with her stylized cat beside a table that is essentially a still life.
