When I painted Woman Under Brown Blanket, I was learning how impasto could carry emotional weight as much as color or gesture. The raised surface let the figure and the cloth press forward at the same intensity, so the body feels both revealed and concealed at once. I was exploring how spatial depth could collapse into a single plane of pressure — how a simple gesture, a lying figure under a brown blanket, could hold a quiet tension that isn’t easily resolved. This painting sits at a turning point in my early mid‑career work, when I was beginning to understand how color and surface could shape psychological space.
