In Longing, a solitary figure stands at the edge of a narrow causeway, her red dress lifting in the evening breeze as she looks out toward a descending sun. The sky moves from deep coral at the top of the canvas through molten orange into a soft, radiant halo around the sun, casting a band of liquid gold across the still water. Below, the reflective strip of crimson at her feet turns the shoreline into a quiet mirror, suggesting both distance and connection between where she stands and where her heart wants to be.
The piece reads as both seascape and inner life. Her posture is calm but unresolved, poised between staying and stepping forward, embodying the ache of a love that is absent, delayed, or still unseen. The glowing path of light over the water hints at providence and timing beyond her control – a visual prayer that God will, in His season, bring two lives together. The warm spectrum from red to gold wraps the entire scene in a sense of remembered touch and future hope, making the canvas feel intimate even at large scale.
Stylistically the work sits in contemporary abstract minimalism: clean silhouettes, simplified landforms, and a disciplined colour field carry the story without fuss. The wide 2:1 panoramic format makes this an ideal statement above a sofa, sideboard, or bed, as well as in hallways, reception areas, and boutique hotel settings where a single horizontal piece can set the emotional tone of the room.
