Untitled 6M (40.9×24.3cm) Written by Keiichiro Sakuma

¥66,000

This work is composed of strong brush strokes, with a female figure in the center.

She is wearing a kimono-like costume, and her face has a calm expression as if she is praying.

Throughout, a variety of colors are used boldly, bringing vibrancy and dynamism to the entire scene. In particular, the flowers above the woman's head seem to symbolize vitality and natural beauty.

The rough brushstrokes create visual tension, giving the impression of exploring the relationship between a woman's inner world and the outside world. It can be said that this is a piece that truly reflects the author's deep sensitivity and strong individuality.
