A dreamy illustration inside the iconic moment of a maiden trying on a glass slipper, with a regal figure kneeling before her, observed by two envious women and an older stern woman: unique blend of abstraction and realism, style challenges traditional notions of composition and perspective, bold expressive lines and a vivid color palette combining pastel and bright tones, asymmetrical and fragmented layout with a spontaneous unstructured feel, thick impasto paint applications creating a three-dimensional, tactile effect that brings the characters to life. Influenced by Jon Klassen, Marianne von Werefkin, Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis, and Will Barnet. Characters and figures depicted in a surreal way with exaggerated facial features and a naive, raw quality.
A highly textured oil painting depicts a scene reminiscent of Cinderella, featuring five figures in a vibrant, stylized setting. In the foreground, a prince with a golden crown, a red cape, and dark attire kneels, fitting a light blue glass slipper onto the left foot of a young woman with long blonde hair, dressed in a voluminous white gown. She sits on a richly decorated throne-like structure with arched blue and pink panels. Behind the prince, two women with dark updos, rosy cheeks, and pearl necklaces gaze with envious or disapproving expressions; one in a light blue dress with a white flower, and the other in a pink dress holding a pink fan. To the right of the blonde woman, an older woman with a severe expression, grey hair pulled back in a bun, and a dark, long-sleeved dress stands, leaning on a walking stick. The background features a fantasy cityscape with tall, ornate buildings and towers under a dark blue sky, giving a theatrical and dreamlike quality to the scene. The entire painting is characterized by thick impasto brushstrokes, especially visible in the clothing and architectural elements, creating a tactile surface.
