This artwork captures a serene woman in a beige kimono, her elegant obi and red hairpiece adding subtle grace. Flanked by two sleek black cats with piercing yellow eyes, seated on a black-and-white checkered floor, the scene evokes mystery and balance. A stark black backdrop highlights the figures, emphasizing the fine details of her attire. The piece blends traditional Japanese culture with a minimalist aesthetic, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and intrigue. Inspired by Japanese aesthetics, I used acrylics on canvas to depict this tranquil yet enigmatic scene. For texture before painting, a layer of textured paste with small glass particles is applied. Dutch acrylic paints Amsterdam and Italian canvas tm Unico were used. Finish – satin varnish. The ends are painted in the background color. Series “Life in Avatar”. Created on a pre-stretched canvas on a wooden frame. It is packed in cardboard box. The artwork is signed and comes with a certificate.
