In her portraits, the human condition continues, but the people appear stronger and determined to be in charge of their fate. In the ‘Perseverance’, the man confronts the viewer with undeniable confidence. The few loose brushstrokes are bowing under the strength of the intense gaze of the man.
The portraits of women are strong and contemplative. The colours remain strong, but the brushstrokes become more manageable. The artist found a way to liberate the figures from the landscape. The little figures become strong portraits of people who are not afraid to face their daily struggles. The melancholic beauty of the lonely figure that the artist explored in the vast landscapes, finds its resolution in the intimacy of the portraits.
