Fading Light

€3.600,00

Layers of time, emotion, and texture merge in Fading Light. This abstracted female portrait explores the balance between visibility and fading, between strength and stillness. Her face hovers between en-face and profile, as if she is slowly detaching from the moment.

The warm tones – beige, brown, black, white, and a faded blue – create a soft depth, while the many layers of paint make her presence almost tangible. The light fades, but her essence remains.

Fading Light is a layered abstract female portrait in which stillness, light and refinement converge. Built up in multiple translucent layers, the painting reveals a soft depth and a subtle sense of movement within the surface. The gentle fall of light enhances the calm yet continuous presence of the portrait.
The technique combines direct brushwork with smooth transitions, creating a balance between boldness and nuance. The gaze forms the quiet centre of the composition: not rendered in detailed realism, but with a strong emotional undertone.
Fading Light reflects my signature visual language of layered stillness and refined abstraction. An original painting, one of a kind.
