The Visual Aesthetic of Lucky Cat Universe

Abstract

“The Visual Aesthetic of Lucky Cat Universe” presents ideas about the aesthetics of good luck reflected through the paintings in the cosmos of lucky cats. These works were created using acrylic paint on canvas in a two-dimensional format, conveying beliefs about fortune and positive energy through charming and adorable cat images. The lucky cat universe is inspired by "Maneki Neko," the lucky cat in Japanese culture, which has been reinterpreted to possess its own unique identity, with each cat representing different meanings of good luck, such as wealth, love, health, and happiness. The paintings discussed in this article not only focus on artistic beauty but also reflect the connection between symbols of fortune, such as four-leaf clovers, and the encouragement of positive energy for the viewers. The use of bright colors and a dreamy atmosphere helps convey hope, faith, and positive energy, allowing viewers to experience happiness and encouragement from the artwork. This artwork thus combines art and cultural meaning that inspires those who observe it.
From the above contents, this acrylic painting was created and inspired by the story of enjoying life in the simple way of a cat and a four-leaf clover. To reflect people's awareness of the value of time and happiness in the present, the image of a cat standing in the colorful atmosphere of the universe presents the aesthetics and beauty, affecting the feeling of happiness, which is a wish of everyone.
