Oil on canvas
Unframed 61 × 72.2 cm
A vivid, dreamlike scene of four figures reclining beneath a striped parasol, suspended between intimacy and stillness. Using saturated reds, acidic yellows, and cool lavender skin tones, the painting explores leisure, vulnerability, and the quiet tension of shared space. The flattened perspective and stylised forms create a sense of emotional distance while evoking memories of long summer afternoons and human connection.
After the Heat captures a suspended moment of rest and closeness through bold colour and expressive figurative forms. Influenced by modernist composition and sun-soaked leisure scenes, the work balances softness with intensity, drawing the viewer into a world that feels both nostalgic and emotionally charged. A striking contemporary piece suited to collectors of figurative and colour-led painting.
