Breaking Through (2025)

Oil on canvas
30 x 40 in

A single arm breaches the picture plane to touch the reclining figure, collapsing the space between viewer and subject. The gesture hovers between tenderness and control, raising the question of whether the body is being held, guided, or claimed. The work confronts the uneasy boundary between observer and observed — the moment when looking becomes contact.
