About this artwork

In these two luminous pieces, Shartouh paints movement the way nature feels it gently, instinctively, as if carried by breath. In “A Butterfly Caress,” motion becomes warmer, richer, almost tender. The strokes swirl in golden ambers and deep violets, echoing the light touch of wings brushing past the skin. It is a moment held in abstraction — fleeting, delicate, and full of life.
Together, the two works form a poetic duet about transformation: one carried by wind, the other awakened by touch. Alone, each painting brings a sense of softness and emotional freedom to modern and serene interiors.
For collectors: A pair that speaks in whispers — airy, intimate, and beautifully alive.
