My Little Rat

This large-scale oil painting (100 x 120 cm) is a vibrant and expressive piece that invites viewers into a dreamlike, surreal world. Rich in texture and depth, the work showcases a confident, consistent application of oil paint, bringing both movement and intensity to the composition. At its center floats a whimsical, harlequin-style doll head—resembling the artist—transformed into a hot air balloon drifting gently across soft pink clouds. Suspended beneath it is a deeply personal and poetic element: the artist’s late albino rat, carried tenderly through this fantastical sky. The imagery blends innocence, memory, and imagination, creating a unique emotional resonance. Bold, colorful, and full of symbolic meaning, this painting stands out as a striking statement piece—perfect for collectors who appreciate surreal, narrative-driven art with a personal touch.
