ArtistWet-on-wet watercolor painting, dark and suffocating 19th-century brothel interior, oppressive and decaying atmosphere. A dim, narrow salon filled mostly with weary feminine figures in shadow, seated or standing under heavy velvet curtains and stained wallpaper. Only a few indistinct male silhouettes in the background, barely visible, passive and ghostlike. Low amber and sickly green lighting spreads through smoky, stagnant air, creating a nauseating and claustrophobic mood. Cracked mirror reflecting distorted female silhouettes, tired expressions suggested but not detailed. Small round tables with half-empty glasses, wilted flowers, scattered lace, feathers and worn fabrics on the floor. Wet watercolor bleeding heavily into paper, pigments dissolving into each other, dirty water stains and drips creating uneasy visual tension. Palette of deep burgundy, nicotine yellow, muted violet, dirty sepia and shadowy blacks. Soft blurred edges, humid textures, soaked paper grain visible, cinematic composition, intimate yet unsettling, decadent and almost repulsive atmosphere, expressive wet watercolor technique.
