A dark-coated cat turns its attention towards something beyond the frame, while tulips rise beside it. Envoûtement floral by Sybiline brings feline presence and flowers together in a painting shaped by the colours of both the subject and its wooden surface.
The artist was inspired by the tones of this Tonkinese cat and the warmth of the wood. Those starting points give the oil painting a natural harmony, with the flowers adding another form to follow as the eye moves through the image.
Nature and reverie sit at the heart of Sybiline’s work. Here, that sense of daydreaming leaves room for our own interpretation. We can enjoy the arrangement as it is, or wonder what has caught the cat’s attention just beyond our view.
This framed oil on wood is an intimate piece, inviting a close look at the face, the coat and the surrounding colour. For someone who loves cats and floral subjects, it offers an appealing meeting of the two.
