Oil on fabric

This piece is a portrayal of serenity and introspection, captured through the soft, yet striking image. Her eyes are closed, with both hands gently placed on her face, embodying a moment of peaceful contentment. The saturated orange tones of the painting evoke warmth and calm, enhancing the emotional depth of the piece.
I wrapped the canvas in an orange-patterned fabric to complement and extend the vibrancy of the portrait, creating a seamless dialogue between the subject and the background. The interplay of color and fabric serves to highlight the harmony and balance in the moment, inviting the viewer to experience the quietude and stillness conveyed through both the pose and the chromatic choices.
