There is a specific stillness that follows a long journey—a moment where the light of a new place finally begins to feel like home. This piece captures the interior of a bungalow from a recent trip to India, painted from a photograph taken upon our arrival. What makes this work unique is the finish of the medium. As the acrylics set on the canvas, they dried with a rich, unexpected texture, creating a heavy impasto effect that brought the glowing lamp and white-washed walls to life. The result is a tactile, atmospheric study of light and memory that feels as vibrant as the moment it was captured.
