Luminating Gaze I is separated into three main sections, a light cool white as a background, a translucent grayscale as a middle and an opaque darker brush stroke as a foreground in a more focused ratio. In the dynamic diagonal eye direction, the three element meets at the off-center as the anchor before the complementing details follow in order through suggested guided lines.

Colour-Surge (Crimson-Lake) 

35.5 x 30 cm - Oil on Canvas - 2021

Exhibited in OMG? RED! ^ D^

Colour-Surge emits adrenaline fueled emotions and charged nerves, with the audience far enough to witness the surge but in distance to experience the eye of the storm.
