Cats are the closest thing to a monster most humans will ever get near. No creature is near to monster’s heart than a cat and few artist capture the essence of a cat better than Michael Leu. He has had a long career and wandered through many styles. Most of his works draws its influence from European Expressionism. The works most enjoyed by HipMonsters harks to Matisse.
Studio Cat II has a cat doing what a cat does best, laying down. The cat’s weary eyes strains to look up. You feel as if you have disturbed his rest and want to pouch on him with loving attention. The lines seem drawn from a Zen-like state of mind. The colors laid on as if rained down from the sky. Michael Leu’s painting are a joy to own.
