Artist Shu Yamamoto was born in Yokohama, Japan in 1948. He graduated from Aichi Prefectural University of Arts and currently lives in Utah, USA, with his family. In 2007, he accidentally saw his son imitating Van Gogh's self-portrait, but the painting was not Van Gogh but the face of a cat. As a cat lover, he was inspired to use this as an opportunity to paint two of his favorite paintings. Elements - "cat" and "art" are combined into creative elements, and the world's famous paintings begin to be fully "meow-ified". From ancient Egypt, the Greek era, the Renaissance, realism, surrealism, Asian art... So far, he has accumulated more than 500 cat-like works, including oil paintings, watercolors, sketches, electronic paintings and other media , in addition to retaining the characteristics of each art genre, he also adds the world view of cats. Looking at his works one after another, it is like being taught a lesson in the art history of cats! Therefore, "Cat Art Museum" became the theme name of this series of works exhibited all over the world.
THE WHISKYFIND is an emerging independent whisky bottler in Asia. In 2016, it became internationally famous for its "Classic of Mountains and Seas" series of whiskys.

Each of the world-famous paintings transformed into meows, this cross-border cooperation project is "Meowseum Cat Museum Collection Whisky"!
The original painting depicts two Tahitian women sitting on the beach, one silently meditating, the other holding a small object, and the sea level scene behind, through the bright and bold blue and green ocean and the bright red and pink colors that symbolize passion. The contrasting matching of dresses uses rich and changing colors to show a harmonious and balanced visual effect.
