About this painting: 

In this dreamlike painting inspired by Japanese anime aesthetics, a young woman stands bare-shouldered in a surreal, luxurious garden filled with glowing flowers and palm-like plants. Despite the glamorous surroundings, her expression is pensive—almost melancholic. Lying at her side is a large, stylized white tiger, her only friend in this extravagant yet isolating world. The scene evokes a similar emotional atmosphere to Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind by Hayao Miyazaki: a lone heroine in a vibrant but ambivalent world, caught between beauty and solitude. The stylization, colors and composition subtly echo the spirit of early Studio Ghibli storytelling.
