Lookining Back
Acrylic on canvas, this expressive figurative work pairs a curled nude silhouette with luminous vertical bands of teal, blue, pink, and green. Loose brushwork and bold contour lines create emotional tension, balancing vulnerability and presence in a richly atmospheric contemporary composition.
