Cicada

Oil on panel, 18" x 24" (45.7 x 61 cm)

Cicada presents an allegorical figure suspended between transformation and emergence, drawing on themes of renewal, fragility, and the passage of time. The winged form, both delicate and grounded, suggests a moment of transition—where the boundaries between the natural and the human begin to dissolve.

Surrounding elements, including the presence of birds and the atmospheric setting, reinforce a sense of movement and cyclical change. The composition balances fluid gesture with structural control, guiding the viewer through a space that is both imagined and symbolically charged.

Rooted in imaginative realism, the work combines classical technique with narrative invention, allowing the figure to exist within a world shaped as much by meaning as by observation.

The original artwork remains in the artist’s private collection and is available for acquisition. Limited edition prints are available in a set of 100, with custom sizes offered upon request.
