This is the first inaugural art print collection. They are made for art collectors who love to live with work that has a story, a soul. This collection is 5 years in the making and went from a very simple cat to a complex artwork. I'm very interested in flat pattern and the Japanese Taishō Chic art movement......the full story is below

Genesis Print Collection 25/25 Signed Editions

Signed museum-quality Hawa Cat prints are available in limited editions for collectors, interiors, and architectural spaces. Each print is part of the developing Hawa Cat art universe by Eve Hennessa.

In the beginning, there was Hawa Cat

Taishō Chic is an early-modern Japanese style from 1912–1926, blending traditional Japanese beauty with Western modernity, Art Deco, jazz-age glamour, cinema, cafés, and “modern girl” culture. It is not unlike modern digital culture, where so many traditional themes are being done in a new way. There has always been a lot of Asian influence in my art. I spent a decade creating large abstract watercolors that give that light airy light subtle beauty vibe of Japanese art. With Hawa Cat I'm adding interesting patterns inspired by their fur, while playing with the flatness of a cat, which is very static and doesn't move or change much and is cartoony. Then the eyes have a deep soul they are realistic they are trying to speak.

Hawa is sometimes male female and sometimes neither. Even though it's the same cat! Sometimes she's flirty feminine and sometimes he's had enough. The backgrounds are a mix of collage ,AI ,digital drawing, and a mix all three sometimes. Each Hawa is I is hand-painted on the iPad. That's why even though the outline looks the same or the eyes might look the same no two of them are actually the same. There are 15 painted canvases of Hawa Cat, though. But the digital cats came first. I had been severely injured Laying in bed. I’m very involved in blockchain and digital culture and had to make NFTS.

We passed through lockdown together as a global community, creating a completely new world. I built and curated a Metaverse art gallery with a permanent exhibition called "Tongue Rough Like a Flint" taken from a Pablo Neruda poem about cats. I have bought some good real estate in Decentraland and will build a gigantic gallery there one day with artist Studios, retail and office space! But the world is not ready for this yet!!

In the digital global community there are 1000s of cats. It's a beautiful thing can express so much. It has become very problematic to be a human these days. Animals live free without the judgment of hairstyles, clothes, and manner of speaking. The animals wear the fur that they were born with. My cats express totally different than someone else's cats. Cuteness is underrated and something that really brings life to life.

Everyone can connect with cute animals. It puts us back in the child state where we start fresh every day. That's why all of us digital are creators who were in spaces all day during lockdown were. Having global sharing of new technology and new ways of making art. The innovation still continues, but somehow we all scattered. it was great to be in a global community where we talked about art. We connected on art and tech. I had close friends from Thailand, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Cuba, Yemen, and a whole group of Latinos. Estuvo genial! in 2024 the algorithm changed and we all lost each other. Besides the fact that the world opened up we were not stuck at home anymore. We had Metaverse art openings, meetings and dicusse and experimented in all these new digital ways of communication, creation and commerce.

Contact me for a larger size can make them up to 73 x 73. That will cost, but it will be spectacular. These are my best pieces from years of work. Enjoy!
