This painting is ready for sale in September. For this painting I have studied Rembrandt's light, how the light falls on his subject and what he thereby demonstrates and brings forward. His light also includes deep shadows, softly glazed transitions and highlights that evoke drama and mystery in his work. Rembrandt leaves much to the imagination of the viewer. He creates an atmosphere and feeling that keeps you trapped in his work. This is how you see his narrative power, even in his portraits, where he stimulates the viewer to fill the space with a story or emotion. I have also applied these aspects in my own painting. For example, I glazed in layers to create more depth, life and warmth in the image. The light falls on the face of the woman and her fingers that reach into the room, what is there, what does she touch? The visual becomes a feeling, an emotion that is reinforced by the face and the expression of wonder and uncertainty. The other hand grabs for support in the shade, but does she find support there? There is a conflict between light and dark, the world seems to be sucked away from the thoughts, it is only about this moment: the Light and the woman.
