Model in Venice

2019 | 24″x30″ | Oil on Linen

A young woman sits on a simple wooden folding chair near a large studio window, turned three-quarter to the right with hands loosely clasped over ripped jeans. The high platform shoes, long hair, and relaxed posture feel candid, as if caught between poses. Through the dark window frame, a soft-focus façade of neighboring apartments flattens into stacked rectangles, echoing the chair’s geometry and quietly situating the scene in an urban neighborhood.

The palette is restrained, reading as warm monochrome with creamy whites, umbers, and cool grays. Broad, economical brushwork leaves edges lost in the luminous floor and along the wall, while sharper accents define the profile, shoes, and chair rails. Reflected light pools across the floor and up the wall, giving the interior a calm hush; the visible outlet and cord add a present-tense, work-in-progress feel.
