Bree
This piece given the name Bree, like its companion Nolani, presents a powerful study of contrast—both in form and feeling. A slimmer female figure is depicted in a strong, poised stance, rendered in striking black and white, embodying boldness and self-assurance. The background features a blend of dark and light blues, representing the interplay between the internal and external worlds. Gold leaf accents glisten across the canvas, symbolizing moments of expression and confidence that break through. Yet, underlying the piece is a quiet tension: the balance between stepping out with courage and the subtle shyness that lingers when it comes to execution. This painting explores the dance between boldness and restraint, honoring both the strength to be seen and the quiet contemplation that informs action. It reflects the nuanced nature of self-expression, where confidence coexists with a gentle hesitancy.
