Lila (2026) Original Acrylic Painting by Roberta Heslop

100 × 100 cm, 20 mm deep (approximately 39.4 × 39.4 × 0.79 inches) | Original acrylic on gallery-wrapped linen canvas, primed with clear gesso

Lila is an original figurative painting of a seated woman. Folded into herself, quiet, at rest. The marks are minimal - just enough to find her.

I painted her first in white, then returned with warm flesh tones that settle into the weave. The clear gesso keeps the warmth of the linen showing through, so the canvas becomes part of her. Skin and linen feel like they belong together - natural ground, natural form.

Part of The Linen Trilogy alongside Freya and Anima. Same canvas, same palette, three completely different women.
