In this bright and memorable painting, made with acrylic on canvas, we meet a well-known character. However, this time Butch appears before us not just as a cartoon character, but becomes a symbol of struggle and resistance in the name of peace and freedom.
Welcome to Ukraine! Good old Butch grins broadly. The machine gun in his hands demonstrates a readiness to repulse anyone who sticks his head in, and a cigar in his teeth testifies to calm confidence and an unbending spirit. Well, well, old Butch seems to be saying, go ahead, try it, see what you can do.
One of the brightest elements on the canvas is a red hat on the cat's head, which serves as a contrasting spot and attracts attention. It is a recognizable symbol and causes additional visual interest in the overall compositional solution.
The title of this work could sound like: "Good Old Butch: The Victory of GoodOver Evil." This is an example of modern art that calls for unity and resistance, while at the same time emphasizing the importance of strength and perseverance in overcoming evil.
