Oil on linen, 14x20in

Pulse Check marks the space between two people - between you and her. The warm colors measure the full heartbeats of intimacy and memory, exposing a vulnerable emptiness in the shadows. The suspended arm is a request for vitality through connection. The quiet weight of what was once felt deeply meets the absence of that feeling in this moment, as you see her. Waiting quietly for your acknowledgement, it asks without demand: A gentle check of existence, yours and hers. Are you still there? Then, am I still here?
