Figure Studies – Intimate Moments
Private spaces, fleeting gestures, and the unguarded self—these portraits explore the subtle power of intimacy. Each painting draws the viewer into a world of introspection, where light, posture, and atmosphere reveal the quiet drama of being alone with one’s thoughts. These works invite contemplation of the moments we rarely share, yet all experience.
In the Mirror 5 (2025) A woman contemplates her reflection, the composition inviting viewers into a moment of self-examination. The subtle interplay of light and posture reveals both vulnerability and quiet strength.
Heated Thoughts (2009) This expressive portrait captures the subject lost in thought, her gaze a window into internal dialogue. The energetic brushwork and color temperature shifts heighten the emotional charge.
Study in Blue and Scarlet (2017) This painting explores the emotional tension between cool detachment and passionate intensity. The interplay of blue and scarlet hues across the figure’s form creates a visual dialogue between serenity and desire, inviting the viewer to witness a moment of introspective vulnerability.
Lighter Than Air (2012) Soft edges and diffused color create a dreamlike atmosphere around the sitter. The relaxed pose and gentle lighting suggest a fleeting moment of peace and introspection.
Afternoon Light, Culo and Lace (2020) Bathed in the soft glow of afternoon, this portrait captures a sensual, private moment. The delicate interplay of lace and skin, rendered with attention to texture and shadow, draws the viewer into a world balanced between vulnerability and quiet confidence.
