Bella 2 is a powerful exploration of duality—emotion and intellect, softness and strength, the seen and unseen. Set against a bold, electric backdrop of crimson, violet, and fuchsia, this 12”x12” oil mixed media piece captures a gaze that pierces through the chaos with unwavering presence. Anatomical heart diagrams, gestural texture, and expressive brushwork converge to form a visceral narrative on identity and vulnerability.
The portrait’s composition combines classical oil techniques with contemporary mark-making and mixed materials, creating dynamic movement and tension across the canvas. Layers of spray paint, thick impasto, and stenciled symbols invite the viewer to look closer—to uncover story, symbolism, and sensation beneath the surface.
