This portrait holds a moment of self-possession—quiet, luminous, and unguarded. Set against a field of violet and gold, the figure turns inward while remaining unmistakably present. Oil and mixed media layers build depth and texture, allowing light to catch, break, and re-form across the surface. Gold leaf accents act like memory or affirmation—irregular, imperfect, and intentional. This piece speaks to strength without spectacle and beauty that doesn’t ask for permission.
