about this artwork
This oil painting depicts a Japanese samurai woman, a “onna-bugeisha”, in a composition mixing strength and elegance. The decoration, particularly neat, combines colourful flowers and butterflies with the meticulous details that gently enrich the scene. The main character, embodied as a cat with remarkable realism, brings movement and thanks to the ensemble, in an attitude evoking almost a dance. The play of light and fine detail reinforce the depth and poetry of the work. Finally, the effects of cracks made around the oval frame create a refined finish reminiscent of the appearance of marble.
about this artist
Valéry Quitard, known as VECU, is a contemporary French painter with a singular style combining realism, poetry and imagination. A passionate self-taught, he develops a refined universe where trompe-l’oeil, symbolism and visual narrative meet. His works, made mainly by oil, reveal a great technical mastery and careful attention to details. Inspired by ancient objects, tales and childhood memories, VECU creates compositions imprinted with sweetness and mystery. His universe often features anthropomorphic animals and characters out of time, evolving in theatrical and dreamlike atmospheres. Through his paintings, the artist invites the spectator to slow down and give way to emotion and imagination. His work oscillates between magical realism and poetic surrealism, with a strong contemplative dimension. Shown in France and abroad, VECU seduces by the timeless elegance and sensitivity of its creations. Each work tells a silent story where poetry and wonder occupy a central place.
