Original artwork description:

Sunbathing is a bold contemporary figurative painting that explores sensuality, confidence, and the beauty of the human body in a moment of quiet self-awareness. Set against a rich red background, the female figure is rendered with warm, natural skin tones that contrast strikingly with the deep black lingerie, creating a composition charged with intimacy and strength.

The cropped framing emphasizes posture, curves, and gesture rather than identity, allowing the body itself to become the central language of expression. Subtle highlights and soft shadows suggest warmth on the skin, evoking the feeling of sunlight and calm presence. The red backdrop adds emotional intensity and passion, while maintaining a clean, minimalist structure.

Painted in oil on canvas, Sunbathing balances realism with expressive simplification. It is a confident statement piece that celebrates femininity, self-possession, and quiet power, making it a compelling addition to modern interiors and contemporary art collections.
