This 36" x 36" oil painting of hands and feet serves as a unique self-portrait, conveying my identity without depicting my face. My hands play a significant role in how I communicate and interact with the world, making them a powerful representation of self. Inspired by the dramatic oil paintings of the Baroque era, this piece explores the interplay of intense light and shadow while maintaining the natural flow and softness of the skin. Through this approach, the painting captures both movement and emotion, inviting viewers to connect with the unspoken language of gesture and presence.
