Captured with a high-resolution scan for exceptional accuracy, this oil painting is part of a small series focused on a simple, earthy palette. This limited color range emphasizes value contrast, an area I consider a strength in my work, and encourages a more symbolic interpretation than a full-color depiction. This approach is something I plan to explore further.
The painting features a tranquil, almost otherworldly figure, likely a young woman, in muted browns and whites. She gently holds a luminous, geometric object, her soft gaze fixed upon it, suggesting quiet contemplation or a mystical connection.
Three rabbits accompany her, each with a distinct presence: a dark one behind, a white one near her lap, and a brown one at her feet. These animals lend an allegorical feel, hinting at nature, vulnerability, or a symbolic relationship with the figure.
The abstract, textured background of swirling whites and pale blue creates a dreamlike atmosphere. A radiant gold halo behind her head adds a spiritual or symbolic layer. The overall impression is one of quiet beauty, inviting reflection on the figure's inner world and her connection to the glowing object and the gentle creatures around her.
