Lioness

2024 | Oil On Canvas, Stretched on Wood Frame

Two figures share a motorbike journey through warm, golden light, their forms rendered with expressive brushwork that captures both movement and partnership. The motorbike becomes a symbol of freedom and self-determination - the ability to choose one's path and move through the world with autonomy. This intimate scene reflects the artist's belief that progress within a community is measured by how individuals, particularly women, are empowered to make their own choices and travel their own roads. The loose, impressionistic style emphasizes the spontaneity and courage required to embrace such freedom, while the warm palette suggests the positive energy that comes from living without constraint.
