Rapture was born from my need to break free from restraint and paint in a way that felt alive. I have always admired the grace of ballet, but here I wanted to go deeper, to show the pulse beneath the performance, the unspoken intimacy between dancers, the fierce beauty of movement in its purest form. Every line, every splash of colour was laid down with urgency and emotion. This painting is part of my ongoing journey toward an expressive style that embraces freedom, movement, and the emotional core of dance.
