20×24 Oil on canvas. A nighttime canvas glows with the restless energy of three young women, their nude forms sketched in warm, trembling brushstrokes as they dance in a ring around a low, crackling fire; the orange light carves the contours of shoulders and thighs, casting shadows that merge with the velvet black of the surrounding woods. Their movements are caught between suggestion and motion—arms lifted, hair tossed, hands linked—conveying both the exhilaration of freedom and the quiet intimacy of shared ritual. The painter’s palette—burnt sienna, umber, cadmium, and ultamarine—creates a tension between warmth and night-cold. Expressive strokes give the scene a breathless immediacy, making the moment feel both timeless and rooted in a single, pulsing instant of communal abandon.
