Untitled 25 (Shepherd and Goats)

A cobalt-blue figure advances through a dense, green thicket, the composition alive with gestural marks that feel like wind moving through leaves. The saturated orange canopy above becomes less a literal sky than a halo of heat and music, amplifying the quiet ritual of the flute and the tender companionship of the two white goats at his side. Broad planes of yellow and blue anchor the body like devotional color-fields, while the loosened edges and layered strokes suggest a world that is remembered, sung, and continually reimagined. In this meeting of pastoral intimacy and near-mythic presence, the painting turns everyday herding into a metaphor for guidance—art as a call that gathers the living into harmony.
