Obsidian Desire: A Study in Impasto and Gold Leaf

from £36.00

This is an expressive, heavily textured impasto painting focusing on a nude female torso. Rendered primarily in thick layers of white and gray paint, the figure is defined against a turbulent, high-contrast black and magenta background. The woman's hands, adorned with striking red nail polish, cover her chest in a gesture of intimacy or self-possession. Flecks of metallic gold leaf are splattered across the canvas, adding a luxurious, dynamic element to the raw, visceral texture created by the palette knife work. The mood is sensual and powerful, emphasizing form, contrast, and the materiality of the paint.
