Small Contemporary Painting By Karibou - Joya - 14½" x 14½"

Joya is a small oil on cardboard painted in soft, textured strokes that give the little white dog a gentle, almost cloudlike presence. Set against a glowing red background with touches of earthy brown beneath, the composition feels both warm and intimate, a simple square that draws the eye directly to the sitter’s quiet expression. The brushwork is feathery and luminous, allowing the fur to shimmer subtly against the bold color field. Presented in a light-wood frame with a clean mount, the piece is signed in the lower right corner.

The atmosphere is tender and quietly uplifting, as though Joya is pausing just long enough to be noticed and cherished. There is sweetness in the calm gaze, and a lovely contrast between the soft white coat and the vibrant red ground that gives the painting a lively, decorative appeal. This piece will speak to dog lovers who appreciate portraits with personality, as well as to anyone drawn to warm, expressive color. It fits beautifully into a gallery wall, adding a note of gentle charm and brightness, or it can stand alone as a small, heartfelt companion in any cozy space.
