Flying Angel I (Ascendance) Canvas Figurative Painting

Suspended in a velvety field of deep blues and greens, the winged figure drifts between ascent and surrender, her raised arms reading like a gesture of invocation as much as release. The luminous wing—painted with soft, layered whites—becomes a counterweight to the dense, patterned dress, where nested motifs and small figurative echoes suggest memory carried on the body like a private cosmology. Curving hair and elongated limbs orchestrate a slow, underwater choreography, turning the surrounding space into a quiet current that both cradles and destabilizes her. In this dreamlike suspension, flight is less an escape than a tender negotiation with gravity, longing, and the unseen forces that shape an inner life.
