The Return is a bold, joyful original work in Sennerlier oil pastel on handmade Khadi paper. A continuous sherbet yellow form moves through a vivid sky blue background swelling, narrowing, and pooling - suggesting something in motion, something coming back to itself.
A simple composition with two colours but there's real tension in the way the form stretches thin at its waist before expanding again at the base, like a breath held and released. It sits somewhere between the organic and the abstract.
The handmade Khadi paper brings its own character to the piece. The surface holds the oil pastel with a soft, slightly chalky texture, and the natural deckled edges are visible all the way around, making the paper itself part of the work. No two sheets are identical - the slight irregularities in this one are genuine and unrepeatable.
Signed by the artist in the lower right corner.
