"Lost in Pastel" captures the fragile balance between beauty and melancholy. The portrait shows a young woman with soft, almost ethereal features, enveloped in an atmosphere of stillness and introspection. Her gaze is deep and dreamy, as if caught between two worlds - tangible reality and a pastel-coloured dream.
The artist uses a subtle palette of pink, peach, and cream to evoke vulnerability and softness, while dark accents around her face create a sense of depth and isolation. The brush strokes are expressive but controlled, as if each line is trying to hold an emotion before it fades.
The contrasting colours - the warm pastel against the black background - reinforce the sense of inner tension. It is as if the figure is slowly dissolving into her own thoughts, "lost" in the soft tones that surround her.
"Lost in Pastel" is not just a portrait, but a snapshot of quiet emotion. The work invites the viewer to dwell on the fragility of identity, beauty, and the thin line between being present and disappearing. Modern Abstract. Pop art.
