Description:
This painting is part of a series of works called "His Majesty the Telephone and Retro stuff" and features a retro phone as the main subject. The phone is depicted flowing. This effect serves as a visual metaphor about impermanence and the fleeting nature of material objects.

The phone itself is an artifact of a bygone era, a reminder of a time when communication was more limited and technology less advanced. Yet, in its day, it was an important and even luxurious item, a symbol of status and sophistication. The painting invites the viewer to reflect on how the things we value and attach importance to today may one day be viewed as quaint or outdated, like the retro phone in a museum display.

The color palette is warm and subdued, with a vintage feel that complements the retro theme. The brushwork is loose and expressive, adding to the overall sense of movement and change.

Overall, this painting is a poignant reminder of the impermanence of all things, and invites the viewer to contemplate the transitory nature of material existence.
