About Artwork

Jacob in Flowers is an oil pastel nude in a bright, open landscape. A full-length figure stands in a meadow of scattered wildflowers, holding a loose bouquet at his side. Behind him, green hills roll toward darker mountains, and the sky shifts between blue, lilac, and pale gold—light that feels late-day and slightly electric.

The drawing’s color is the main voice. Skin is built from layered blues, greens, and reds, so the body feels lit by both sky and grass. The meadow is rendered with quick, lively marks—pinks, reds, and greens—giving the foreground a sense of movement and abundance without turning it into neat decoration.

This pastoral nude keeps things simple and charged: one figure, one bouquet, one wide landscape. The meadow flickers with small flower marks around the legs, echoing the bouquet in hand. The pose is calm but guarded, the face angled down. Color stays energetic and tactile, so the scene feels lived rather than staged.

This is a strong piece for a space where you want warmth without sweetness: bedroom, studio, or a living room wall that can handle color. From a distance it reads as a bold figure against green; up close it opens into texture and shifting tones.

Oil pastel has a physical presence in person—pigment sits on the surface and catches light—so framing behind glass is recommended for protection. A simple frame (black or natural wood) will keep the composition clean.

Please find more information on the artwork page.

This piece works beautifully where natural light changes throughout the day. Morning light will emphasize the greens; evening light will bring out the reds and violets in the body. Frame behind glass to protect the pastel surface, and consider a mat that gives the image room to breathe.
