More about Time is Running Out

A surrealist oil painting depicts a lone woman standing amidst a vast, cracked earth landscape under a turbulent, layered sky. The woman, with pale skin and bare feet, wears a flowing, ethereal draped dress in shades of pale green and grey, and a matching cap-like headpiece. She gazes intently towards the left, holding a small object resembling a key or a stylized 'S' symbol at her left hip. Her right arm is bare, and the fabric of her dress twists around her left leg, revealing her bare calf and knee. The ground is a parched, ochre-colored desert, deeply fissured with cracks of varying sizes, suggesting extreme drought. Small, indistinct, light-colored objects are scattered across the foreground and midground of the cracked earth. The sky above is a remarkable feature, composed of numerous undulating, folded layers of turquoise, teal, and pale yellow, creating a dynamic and almost liquid appearance. These layers form organic, wing-like or cloud-like structures that stretch horizontally across the entire upper portion of the frame, with some tapering downwards into sharp, pointed forms. In the bottom right corner of the image, a large, antique-style pocket watch with Roman numerals lies inclined on the cracked earth
