The composition moves diagonally, as if the figure is lifting off from one world into another. The yellow body curves into a graceful arc, flowing smoothly into the elongated blue leg that acts almost like a runway of energy. The red circle placed on that blue shape becomes a beating heart, a center of vitality that connects the entire piece.

Opposite her, a second figure emerges in fragments—an expressive face made of lines and arcs, a ribbed torso of white and black, and two vivid green shapes that pulse like internal organs. What remains abstract becomes emotional: a sense of communication between these two beings, one grounded, one in motion.

Around them, floating spheres—pink, black, blue, striped, dotted—act like companions or thoughts that have escaped into the air. Each dot is alive, playful, participating in this small explosion of life. At the bottom right, a creature-like form with wide circular eyes looks up with surprise or curiosity, anchoring the composition in humor.

The whole drawing carries the feeling of a moment just before transformation, where the atmosphere vibrates, the lines twist, and everything prepares to shift into a new dimension. This is the essence of your Tourliboulis world: movement, narrative, and the beautiful chaos of feeling.

I love this piece because it captures a sense of lift—of escape, freedom, and bold movement. The yellow and blue shapes convey a sense of power and confidence, while the face on the right introduces tenderness and curiosity. The expressive dots and small floating figures bring a playful, musical energy. It’s a perfect balance between structure and spontaneity, abstraction and emotion. It feels alive, joyful, and slightly mysterious—everything that makes your style so unique.
