This oil painting depicts a young girl sitting on her bed. She is dressed in a romantic nightgown. She is contemplative. The warm light from her nightlight contracts with the cool light through the window.
The way light is….
Light shines on everything, it warms, brightens and sparkles.
Light shines on everything,
not just the things we want to see.
But once you see it…
You can't no longer not see it!
This painting contains different layers of paint to create depth and dimension. The soft glacis layers and colors are soft and subtle to emphasize the atmosphere of warmth and intimacy.

ARTIST statement
“I love painting people, especially portraits. My figurative work is narrative, in which I create an atmosphere that expresses emotion.
My theme is the power and subtlety of femininity and capturing the essence of beauty and vulnerability. Using light and color to create a romantic, soft atmosphere that invites deep reflection. Beautiful draperies that emphasize the body and beautiful flowers play a major role in my work.
I’m inspired by classical painting and try to continue this tradition through my craftsmanship. With a painterly style and realistic rendering, I create beautiful works of art with oil paint on wooden panel or real 100% Belgian linen.”
