Cycle of the Lotus

Charcoal and Oil on Canvas 2025

Lotus flowers and stems are arranged across a pale ground. Charcoal lines remain visible alongside the painted forms, connecting the flowers and tracing their growth through the composition.

Technique

Charcoal and oil combine a drawn structure with layered colour. Some passages are worked wet-on-wet; others are built over dried paint.

Inspiration

The lotus’s growth from muddy water is a recurring reference in the artist’s work, connected here with ideas of change and renewal.
