Fading Away
Oil paint and sand on canvas
Size: 121.5 x 91 x 2 cm
“Fading Away” is a deeply personal piece inspired by photographs taken years ago on the beach with my former wife. The solitary figure, wrapped in layers of clothing, reflects a sense of isolation and vulnerability. The initial vision involved capturing the vibrant colours of the winter landscape. However, as the painting progressed, the emotional weight of the subject led me towards a more subdued palette. The black and white tones effectively convey a sense of loss and detachment, while the pops of yellow in the wildflowers symbolize a flicker of hope. The contrasting textures further emphasize the impermanence of memories and the gradual erosion of connection.
