The painting brings together symbolism, text, and layered graphic imagery in a visually complex and emotionally charged narrative. A female figure emerges from a richly worked surface animated by hand-written text and fish iconography in a mid-century interior setting. The composition feels at once intimate, theatrical, and psychologically evocative.

Executed with confident brushwork, transparent layering, and a striking palette, “Special” rewards close viewing.

The canvas measures 48” x 60”. The framed size is 49” x 61”. See less
