Small Contemporary Painting By Karibou - Isabelles - 14¼" x 14¼"

Isabelles [Isabelles] is an oil on cardboard rendered with generous, impressionistic brushwork. The palette leans warm, with tawny umbers, russets, and ochres layered into the fur of two closely nestled cats, their dark ears and soft white muzzles emerging from a field of broken color. A pink ground dotted with apricot marks suggests patterned wallpaper and deepens the sense of an intimate interior, while cooler slate notes settle into the shadows below. The composition is compact and centered, the bodies forming a single, gentle mound of paint.

The mood is tender and companionable, as if the room has fallen quiet around a shared doze. Loose, tactile strokes blur edges just enough to evoke warmth and closeness, while the rose-toned backdrop bathes the scene in a soft glow. The overall impression is one of calm domestic comfort, a small moment of affection held in rich color and texture.
