Modest Mary

“Modest Mary” draws inspiration from religious iconography, carrying an aura reminiscent of a rediscovered relic, as if plucked from the ancient ruins of a biblical city. Attention to detail is evident in the nuanced expression and posture of the subject. The relic-like quality of the painting further deepens its connection to the past, as if it carries the weight of history and collective memory with added layers of “patina like” texture that stirs a sense of age and reverence.
