In the dynamic composition titled 'When I Left The Bakery And Was Crossing Bruul Street, Matthias Called Me By My Name,' the artist seamlessly merges the worlds of oil painting and punch needle art, combining four distinct elements into a captivating composition. This scene captures a fleeting moment, with an individual bathed in the warm glow of the golden hour suddenly being called by their name while crossing the street, causing mandarins to scatter into the air from a paper bag.
