Awakening Painting

This artwork features a nude woman painted from a live model, utilizing a minimal color palette with just five oil pigments. Even with the limited palette, my goal was to capture the vibrancy of youth and the anticipation of positive experiences, leading to the title "Awakening." The woman in the painting seems to be emerging from a dream or a restful state. As often seen in my work, the figure's torso is slightly elongated. The body is distinctly outlined, with a bold blue line on the left and a fine light violet line on the right. The painting's edges are finished in a very dark blue, almost indigo, which allows it to be displayed without a frame. The background also shares this indigo hue. If framed, the painting's overall appearance will be further enhanced.
