Watercolor and ink on paper. Signed and Dated on reverse By Kenny Scharf. Also signed by his two daughters Zena & Malia who both contributed to the painting. Mouse Eats Cheese Underwater (1993) by Kenny Scharf is a whimsical collaboration with his daughters Zena and Malia. Executed in watercolor and ink, the work bursts with playful energy, featuring a cartoonish red-eared mouse munching on cheese in an underwater fantasy. Swirling purple currents, aquatic plants, and a bright yellow fish animate the dreamy seascape. The words “YUM YUM” in a speech bubble add to the comic-book flair. This joyful piece blends Scharf’s signature pop-surrealist style with childlike spontaneity, turning family creativity into a vibrant visual narrative.

What is pop-art?
Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
