Breakfast with Cat Series-Original Set-Oil, ink on papers
Shizico Yi is known for her expressive and distinctive artistic style, particularly evident in her mesmerizing ink drawings.
These two drawings paired together, serve as a delightful ode to the enchanting moments shared over breakfasts with her beloved cat.
Rather than relying on photographs, Shizico paints life as the moments unfold, capturing consecutive mornings spent with her cherished cat, Sonny in a series of paintings and postcard projects.
In this Diptych, against a backdrop landscape morphed into Scottish Tartan, a prominent motif in her latest works, everyday scenes are transformed into heart-warming moments of wonder and tranquillity.
Her Breakfast with Sonny Series invites viewers to discover the extraordinary within the ordinary, weaving together the essence of every day with the playful contours of her beloved cat.
With colour strokes of oil and acrylic, Shizico's ink drawings come to life, offering a glimpse into the serene beauty of the mundane.
This Breakfast with Sonny series ignites her newfound appreciation for the simple joys of everyday life after a series of losses of her family, partner, dog and friends. Breakfast Series inspires others to see the world through the lens of her ink and brush, where beauty is in even the smallest moments.
Drawings are the most intimate works to Shizico Yi, therefore it is a precious chance to have a few coming to the market and be available.
Shizico believes that drawing is a direct way to document how she sees the world around her. Every line is her way of touching each fine grain of a thing; for her, a drawing is a contour of a person's life and one's memory.
