Billiards 2, 2025 _{An Expressionism, Acrylic on Art Paper, Painting}

Through bold strokes and a fiery color palette dominated by warm earthy tones—reds, oranges, and browns—contrasted with deep greens, the composition radiates movement and psychological tension.

The figures are portrayed with a raw, gestural energy, emphasizing the players' determination and precision. The rapid brushwork and layered textures created with acrylic, gouache, ink, and watercolor on paper enhance the sensation of motion, making the scene feel almost alive. The cue’s angle, the floating billiard balls, and the blurred expressions add to the anticipation, drawing the viewer into the competitive moment.

This artwork is an ideal addition to a game room, bar/lounge, office, or man cave, bringing an air of intensity and sophistication. Whether you're a billiards enthusiast or a fan of dynamic expressionist art, "Billiards 2" is a conversation starter that captures the passion of the game.

Mikhail Mikora, originally from Kyiv and now based in Prague, is known for his ability to translate movement and raw emotion onto the canvas. His global exhibitions reflect his distinct artistic language, making "Billiards 2" a must-have for collectors of expressive and impactful art.
