This intriguing acrylic and ink painting depicts a woman with mysterious snake-like eyes, alluding to mythological tales of alluring yet mystifying figures. Local artist Jan Keteleer renders his subject thoughtfully, wishing to emphasize her inherent dignity rather than objectify her. His inspiration stems from a fascination with that which he does not fully comprehend.

Skillfully executed in a classicist style with nods to antiquity, the work features clean lines, attention to texture in the snake scales, and emotive yet understated use of color. The 40cm x 40cm painting is neatly presented in a 46cm x 46cm black wooden frame signed discreetly by the artist.

While open to interpretation, the overall effect is mesmerizing yet respectful, hinting at unseen depths and timeless allure. Keteleer hopes to honor womankind with this conceptual series rather than depict the superficial. Truly, the eyes seem to follow the viewer with their secrets intact. Understated yet powerful, this is a piece that invites reflection on the profound mysteries of feminine beauty.
