Breathe Light at the beginning of the Breathing series, built on the same grisaille underpainting that shapes every piece in this group. Where some later paintings were brash and high-contrast, this one moves toward something quieter: pale golds and blues rising through warm, earthen edges, with a single thread of red running through the center like a pulse.
The layered color here is softer, more atmospheric, letting light seem to breathe up from within the canvas rather than sit on its surface. It reflects a later moment in this body of work, when the swirling forms that anchor the series became more lyrical and less dramatic, while still carrying that same sense of energy moving through air.
Part of a series of ten large paintings exploring breath, transition, and the electricity that surrounds us.
