Figure with Horns

2024, Watercolor on Arches Paper
40 x 29 cm / 15.75 x 11.33 in.
Boasting smokey textures, this painting condenses contrasting evocations. 
A horn-shaped top reminiscent of a cattle head, or skull sits on a strawberry or heart shape with protuberances. This pattern could draw from ancient petrospheres, fruit or clusters of eggs. 
Acute shapes cohabit with mellow volumes in this dark, floating Figure.
