Cat with the Pearl Earring
Some say art imitates life. Nikki says—why not cats? Her cover design, Cat with the Pearl Earring, is living proof that even the most iconic masterpieces could use a little feline finesse. Inspired by Girl with a Pearl Earring, she swapped out the mysterious human gaze for a knowing kitty stare, because let’s face it—if anyone deserves to be immortalised in art, it’s a cat. Regal, enigmatic, and just a little bit sassy, this reimagined classic is a playful nod to both high art and high-maintenance pets.
