The cougar, with its burnished orange fur and piercing green eyes, faces right, its gaze fixed on the bustling cityscape. Its body is rendered with strong, visible brushstrokes, emphasizing its muscular form. The cliff face beneath the cougar is a mosaic of browns, blues, and blacks, showcasing the rugged texture of the rock with undulating, thick impasto strokes, and a patch of green grass is visible on the far left of the cliff next to the cougar.
