This painting started with a moment — a close friend…
I wasn’t trying to say something specific, but I was curious about how emotion sits in the body.

There’s grit in her posture — chin raised, shoulders grounded — like someone who’s worked all day in the sun and finally has a moment to breathe. It’s not glamorized strength; it’s raw, quiet resilience. The turquoise glow isn’t natural light — it’s imagined, surreal, giving this everyday body an otherworldly radiance. A kind of low-key empowerment.

This artwork is an original oil painting on high-quality stretched cotton canvas.

It was built up over multiple layers using professional-grade oil paints, allowing for depth, richness, and subtle tonal transitions.

The surface has been carefully varnished to protect the colors and provide a unified, slightly satin finish that enhances the details and brushwork.

The painting is signed on the front and will come with a certificate of authenticity. Thick edges are painted, so it can be hung without a frame if desired.

Durable, archival, and made to last a lifetime.
