Silent Cry

Silent Cry is an original oil painting on copper measuring 12 × 18 inches (30.5 × 45.7 cm). The work presents a composed female figure holding a fish, her gaze directed outward with quiet intensity. While the surface suggests calm and control, the composition carries a deeper emotional undercurrent, expressed through symbolism and restraint.

The use of copper enhances the warmth and luminosity of the flesh tones, while the rich reds and muted background create a contained, almost suspended atmosphere. The fish, rendered with careful attention, functions as a symbolic element—suggesting vulnerability, offering, or the weight of unspoken experience—without prescribing a fixed narrative.

Painted with a balance of precision and expressive sensitivity, Silent Cry explores the contrast between outward composure and internal reality. The figure’s stillness invites reflection rather than explanation, allowing the viewer to engage with the emotional tension embedded within the work.

The original artwork remains in the artist’s private collection and is available for acquisition.
Fine art print options are also offered for collectors seeking a carefully produced reproduction that preserves the tonal depth and surface qualities of the original copper painting.
