The Sun on My Back captures a moment of quiet exposure and warmth. A solitary nude figure sits in a wooden chair, body turned away, soaking in the heat of a radiant, sunlit patch of floor. Rendered in thick impasto strokes and bold, complementary colors, the figure feels both grounded and abstracted—evocative of memory, solitude, and presence. The heavy texture and gestural marks invite the viewer to not just see the painting, but to feel its surface and sensation.
