A luminous portrait of a Hindu woman with a centered bindi and a single butterfly poised near her temple. Her gaze meets the viewer directly while soft blooms of coral teal and gold drift across cheek and hair. Brass filigree earrings and a few loose strands add small discoveries around the edge. The light background preserves generous negative space so the face and neckline read cleanly even at large size.
This piece grew from sketch studies about transformation and calm strength. The butterfly suggests renewal while the steady eyes ground the scene. I wanted a quiet yet confident presence for modern interiors where color feels alive but never chaotic. The palette nods to festival powder and warm metal tones and keeps the attention returning to the eyes.
Layered watercolor style brushwork builds the skin with transparent washes and selective glazing. Lifted highlights keep the lips and bindi fresh. Edges are purposeful around lashes jewelry and butterfly wings to maintain crisp wall readability. The open field around the figure allows easy pairing in a gallery wall or above a console where a single strong portrait can anchor the room.
