This one is about surrender. There’s ecstasy in this pose—not necessarily sexual, but emotional. A release, a moment where the world falls away and you just feel. I painted her with her head tilted back and mouth parted because I wanted to show a woman not being looked at, but just being. While painting it, I found myself breathing deeper—almost like I was experiencing that same release.
The bright crimson background intensifies the emotion, while the contrasting green silk wraps around the figure like a wave. Her pale pink skin is flushed with life, with thick impasto strokes around her chest and neck to create an almost pulsing energy. The hair spreads wildly in the black negative space, like smoke or memory. The entire piece is a crescendo of tension and peace, captured mid-breath.
