Murky Grace
This 22" x 30" oil mixed media painting on Arches paper captures the quiet intensity of a hippo submerged in water, its massive form both concealed and revealed by shifting currents. With a modern expressionist approach, layers of oil and mixed media blend into fluid, gestural marks, evoking the tension between stillness and movement. Hints of abstraction and bold textures mirror the interplay of light and shadow beneath the surface, while rich, moody tones deepen the sense of depth. A study in power, solitude, and the unseen world beneath the water.
