Original artwork description:

In this portrait, I tried to capture the feeling of being enchanted by a moment of pure beauty. Though executed in acrylics, the work deliberately evokes the weathered aesthetic of ancient frescoes, whose colors have been softened and muted by centuries, through heavily textured brushwork and a restrained, nearly monochromatic palette. It seems like the image exists between the tangible and the ephemeral and together with visual language of distressed texture and faded pigments, this creates a sense of timelessness. . The figure becomes less a specific girl and more an archetype of beauty itself: something that exists vividly in the moment of encounter yet begins fading even as we try to hold it in memory.
