Midnight Meow Market

Midnight Meow Market | Watercolor & Ink | 9x12 inch | 2025

This watercolor illustration depicts a scene from a Taiwanese night market. If you ask me what Taiwanese people value most, food is definitely one of the answers. Night markets in Taiwan are filled with delicious street food—among the most famous are fried chicken cutlets, stinky tofu, grilled squid, and milkshakes made from fresh milk and fruit juice. Due to the deep love for food, some popular food vendors even get interviewed on TV shows. I found this phenomenon fascinating, so I painted a scene of several cats enjoying tasty treats at the night market while being interviewed on a TV program.
