A glamorous, beautiful blonde stands as if caught between steps. Her hair falls freely, slightly careless, lively, emphasizing the fragile yet composed inner strength of the image. Her gaze is directed to the side—thoughtful, detached, with a hint of tired irony and quiet determination. The image is maintained in the aesthetics of Gothic decadence. The background is revealed through a double exposure effect: the old city street appears in layers—wet asphalt, slush, parked cars, house facades with soft, diffused light. The end of winter is felt in the fog, chill air, and muted palette of steel-gray and smoky tones. Abstract highlights and translucent forms emerge over reality—a hint of approaching spring. Realism and artistic convention intertwine, creating an atmosphere of nostalgia. The female image emerges at the border of seasons—between a cold winter and the coming spring. Mixed media: the underlayer is a thin glaze of watercolor or liquid acrylic for mist, damp air, and a double-exposure effect; the main image is an oil painting or acrylic with soft, blurred transitions, without hard edges; the final accents are drybrush and graphite/charcoal to emphasize the lines of the face and the folds of clothing; pinpoint cool highlights are pearlescent pigment or silver powder, applied sparingly. This technique maintains a sense of late winter, decadent sophistication, and a fragile movement toward the light.
The female figure is frozen at the boundary between two states of the soul. On the left, the cold silence of the departing winter; on the right, the warm breath of spring with blooming trees and a street café. Double exposure unites the inner and the outer, turning the change of seasons into a metaphor for awakening, when life returns gently, almost imperceptibly.
