Bursting with energy, she sits, forlorn, proper … sad. So much life inside seeping … eeking … through her existance, her multifaceted expression. Costumed in the latest style, tight-buttoned and dark, hiding her inner glow, she is surrounded by the explosion of a rainbow palette, the artist’s hand heavy and light, all at the same time. Encumbered by the fashion’s dictates, her head defies the weight of its decoration, not needed, as her own looks strike the viewer well enough on their own.

Light from behind forms crisp edges, around her, adding harshness through her soft gaze. There is nothing muted, nothing hidden, except whatever thoughts she chooses to conceal. All is luminescent, bright, hue-intense.

Peering at the portrait, the viewer is treated to the artist’s mind, and the subject’s soul.
