Broad, scumbled layers alternate with denser, knife-pulled passages; dry-brush drags create translucency while thicker deposits generate optical weight, producing a push–pull depth without literal perspective. Edge activity is intentional: cool halos around hot masses keep the reds luminous; stacked rectilinear blocks stabilize fast lateral gestures; a compact yellow module acts as the chromatic “heartbeat” anchoring the mid-field. I love it because the piece feels alive—like walking through a city of emotions, where heat, pause, and release are mapped by color temperature and stroke direction; step close and micro-textures reveal the history of the gesture, step back and the architecture of color reasserts itself—materials: acrylic paint and oil markers on unstretched canvas.
