Shrimp (Oil on Shikishi)
Ships from EU.
This original oil painting by Sebastien Coueffic is created on a traditional Japanese mini shikishi board (12.1 × 13.6 cm / 4.7 × 5.3 in).
The work depicts a shrimp rendered in bold, direct brushstrokes. Vibrant reds and warm pinks are layered with darker accents, creating a dynamic contrast against the pale surface. The composition is slightly angled, giving the subject movement while preserving the compact strength of the square format.
Painted on a rigid shikishi support with a subtle gold edge, the small scale intensifies color and material presence. This piece is part of Coueffic’s exploration of oil painting on Japanese shikishi boards, where traditional format meets expressive, contemporary handling of form.
