Yellow Bikini Acrylic

Yellow Bikini
Acrylic on canvas, 40 × 30 cm
Yellow Bikini is a bold, playful celebration of confidence and summer vitality. A stylised female figure reclines atop a radiant sunflower, her form emerging vividly from a deep, moody background. The contrast between the dark surrounding space and the saturated yellows and warm skin tones heightens the sense of warmth, freedom, and self-assurance.
Painted with expressive, intuitive brushwork, the composition blends figurative imagery with symbolic elements. The sunflower acts as both seat and halo, suggesting growth, joy, and resilience, while the relaxed pose of the figure evokes ease and ownership of space. There is a sense of quiet empowerment in the way the figure is presented—unposed, unguarded, and unapologetically present.
This small-scale work packs strong visual impact and would sit comfortably in a contemporary or eclectic setting, appealing to collectors drawn to expressive figurative painting with a touch of humour and warmth.
