Chinese style painting

Asian-inspired painting

Whether we look at the shapes, the colours or the materials, Asian inspiration is everywhere on this canvas. Let's try to decipher the whole:

• The material: the background of this painting, in shades of gold, appears crackled. It is reminiscent of Raku, Japanese ceramics. We're already in Asia.
• The colours: red, gold and a few touches of white are present in this painting. They create a graphic visual, reminiscent of the tones of traditional Chinese silk costumes.
• The symbolism of the shapes: two shapes stand out clearly from the whole. There are oblongs and squares. In China, these two shapes have strong symbolism. The round is linked to the sky and the square to the earth. This is evidenced by the Sapèque, an ancient round Chinese coin with a square hole.

We love this picture for its strong visual impact, which will go well with a Zen or feng-shui atmosphere.
