Momo (Portrait Series: Innerworlds) Acrylic

Momo radiates warmth in searing yellows and glowing accents, a portrait alive with light. Layers of sweeping brushwork and compact textures give both heat and calm, as though the figure is encapsulated in sunshine yet held in serenity.

Overpainting and colour outlines build depth, while impulsive brushstrokes add impulsive energy. On the surface, the word “light blub” flickers like a fragment of thought — that instant of inspiration crystallised. With the sides of the canvas left raw, the process itself becomes part of the artwork. Momo is luminous yet tranquil: a quiet vessel of illumination.
