    Guitar Solo is about a woman who’s fully inside her own moment. The way she blends into the instrument wasn’t about style — it’s how it feels when expression and identity sit in the same place. I didn’t need her whole face; that small part of her expression says enough. The rest of her just eases into the guitar and the space around her, like she’s not performing anything, just living it.

    The shapes around her - these organic, biomorphic forms that feel grown, almost responsive, they carry her rhythm. They give the painting movement even though she’s still. And there’s a touch of that flapper‑girl energy in her — not literal, just that quiet boldness in how she holds her space. She knows herself. She doesn’t need to offer the whole story. The creativity is right there at the surface, steady and natural.
