26 | Renaissance (Portrait of Florence Steel) | Oliver Self-portrait | $22000 | Oil and gold leaf on wood panel

This portrait concerns the personal renaissance of artist Florence Steel – the peace of settling into a new, more genuine self and the weariness of what came before. Rich fabrics and her own art motifs speak to her art practice. Her gaze does not reveal – it invites. It is not my place to explain her, only to say: let me introduce you to Florence.
