Original artwork description:

In Maybe in May, I explore connections between people that are both present in the painting and elusive, as if the figures are caught in a shared moment of freedom and movement. The piece is a dense, semi-abstract composition in acrylic, watercolor, and pencil. It weaves together abstract forms and recognizable human shapes and gestures into a gathering of bodies.
The palette shifts between cool greens and blues, warmer flesh tones, and sudden flashes of red, echoing both natural landscapes and the energy of human figures, allowing viewers to drift between recognition and ambiguity. The layered composition feels full and fluid, capturing the sensation of bodies in motion without ever resolving into a fixed scene, matching a sense of harmony within the apparent chaos, as if the figures are merging with an environment that is alive and ever-changing.

Materials used:

watercolor, acrylics, pencil
