2022

This captivating oil painting by Michele Mikesell is a striking fusion of abstract and figurative styles, masterfully crafted on a large 51 x 38-inch canvas (130 x 97 cm). Titled "Anubis Reimagined", this piece embodies an evocative exploration of mythological and surreal themes. The central figure, elongated and adorned with a crown-like element, exudes an enigmatic presence, reminiscent of ancient Egyptian deities merged with contemporary abstract expressionism. The muted gray-green background, punctuated by delicate marks and textures, serves as a minimalist stage that accentuates the vivid colors and layered details within the figure. Subtle strokes of bold yellows, reds, and blues blend seamlessly with the raw textures, creating a sense of depth and intrigue. This artwork invites viewers to interpret its narrative while showcasing Mikesell’s signature style—a harmonious balance of mystery, abstraction, and symbolism. Perfect for collectors and art enthusiasts seeking a bold yet contemplative centerpiece, this painting complements modern, eclectic, and minimal interiors alike. Its large-scale format and compelling design make it ideal for gallery walls, luxury residences, or professional spaces.
