In the Garden
16” x 20”
Medium: Oil pastel on board sold matted and framed
A luminous, dreamlike garden unfolds in layered fragments, where reality and memory intertwine. Warm golden light flickers throughout the composition like fireflies at dusk, illuminating a tender moment. A woman partially veiled by blossoms, foliage, and painterly texture emerged softly—intimate, close, and almost suspended in time—suggesting a quiet connection held within nature’s embrace.
The surface is richly worked with oil pastel, creating a tactile interplay of velvety softness and energetic mark-making. Florals scatter across the piece in bursts of color—pinks, greens, and hints of red—contrasting with the glowing amber tones that dominate the atmosphere. The composition feels both layered and fragmented, as if glimpsed through shifting seasons or remembered through emotion rather than clarity.
There is a sense of enchantment and stillness, where the garden becomes not just a place, but a feeling—one of warmth, closeness, and fleeting beauty held gently in the glow of light.
