Original artwork description:

“Anticipation” is a captivating blend of watercolour and golden acrylic. Dominated by soothing purple-lilac hues and bright turquoise shades, it creates a dreamy, ethereal atmosphere. At the centre of the composition, a girl is depicted tied in the intricate shibari style, her figure rendered delicately with fluid strokes of watercolour. The ropes binding her are painted with thick layers of golden acrylic, adding a striking texture and a sense of physicality to the piece. The gold stands out not just in colour but also in its dimensionality, giving the ropes a tangible, almost sculptural feel.

In the background, an abstract blend of colours subtly forms a male silhouette, whose figure appears to be approaching the girl. The silhouette is elusive, merging and dissolving into the surrounding shades of purple, suggesting movement or a dreamlike presence. The overall mood is one of tension and intimacy, with the shimmering gold ropes providing a stark contrast to the soft, flowing background.
