Base image of mine.

Shadows drape her form,
whispered winds in cobalt blue,
time fades into light.

A contemplative woman sits enveloped in flowing translucent blue fabric, her gaze distant, lost in thought. The ethereal drapery intertwines with a muted architectural backdrop, where an aged European building fades into soft monochrome. Light and shadow weave together, evoking a dreamlike, nostalgic atmosphere, as if capturing a fleeting memory suspended in time.

Artistic Statement: Blending photorealism with surrealist undertones, this piece evokes a deep sense of longing and introspection. Inspired by Edward Hopper’s solitude, John Singer Sargent’s fabric fluidity, and René Magritte’s surreal veiling, the composition juxtaposes hyper-realistic textures with an almost ghostly abstraction of space. The monochromatic background, contrasted by the piercing cobalt veil, enhances the emotional depth, symbolizing the fragility of memory and emotion.

Influencing Artists: Edward Hopper, René Magritte, John Singer Sargent, Gustav Klimt, Gerhard Richter
