The Midnight Gaze (2026) Original Oil Painting by Dalia Visockaite Kisieliene

This is an original, one-of-a-kind expressionist oil portrait, masterfully captured with professional oil paints on a premium 30x40 cm canvas pad.

In this artwork, titled "The Midnight Gaze", I wanted to explore the profound contrast between light and darkness within the human soul. The vertical composition features a striking face divided by a dramatic chiaroscuro shadow. One side blends into a mysterious midnight background of rich indigo, deep turquoise, and vibrant cobalt blues, while the other side emerges into a warm, sculpted light of ochre and crimson tones.

Using my signature palette knife and heavy impasto technique, I built a rich, physical and sculptural texture that gives this silent contemplation a true three-dimensional presence. For me, this piece is an academic fine art study of human vulnerability, inner strength, and emotional clarity.
