In Secret Pleasures, I wanted to celebrate the private, quiet joys that we tuck away for ourselves. This painting is an exploration of layers—much like the layers of our own inner lives. I chose a palette of rich forest teals, soft corals, and antique golds to create a sense of a hidden garden discovered at twilight.
Using my palette knife, I worked with a varied impasto, building up clusters of 'petals' that feel like soft memories surfacing against a deep, moody background. As I painted this, I felt a sense of delicious solitude. To me, the interplay of the warm pinks against the cool, dark greens represents the spark of delight found in unexpected places.
