A woman stands within a winter landscape as a small bird begins to vanish from her hand.

Built around a deliberate dislocation of seasons, the painting holds a moment before change. The woman is suspended in a world she can no longer fully inhabit.

The bird becomes the central rupture in the image: not fully held, not fully gone.

Note: The painting avoids the use of pure black. The deepest darks are mixed from Ultramarine blue and Burnt umber, creating a grounded, chromatic depth.
