Growing Awareness
36 × 24 inches
Oil on canvas
Original painting
Growing Awareness centers on the moment when perception begins to widen—when inner attention moves beyond the singular self and into a more expansive field. A seated figure anchors the composition, calm and direct, while luminous currents and eye-like forms radiate outward, suggesting layers of seeing that extend past ordinary sight.
The palette balances deep greens with energized pinks and warm golds. Movement flows around the figure rather than through her, creating a sense of stillness at the core and motion at the periphery. The repeated eye forms act less as symbols and more as sensations—echoes of awareness unfolding in multiple directions at once.
The painting holds a quiet tension between control and release. The figure remains composed and present, while the surrounding forms follow their own rhythm, as if awareness itself were alive and circulating independently. Over time, the work reveals subtle shifts: what first appears ornamental begins to feel observant, responsive, almost conversational.
Painted in oil on canvas, Growing Awareness is a one-of-a-kind original intended for collectors drawn to figurative work that explores inner perception with clarity and restraint. It offers presence rather than declaration—an image that continues to unfold the longer it is lived with.
One-of-a-kind original.
