A luminous interior scene rendered in richly layered oil on linen, Caroline Walker's *Afters* captures a quiet, intimate moment suffused with warm artificial light. Walker's signature approach bathes her subjects in a theatrical glow, exploring themes of femininity, leisure, and the private rituals of domestic or social life. The composition draws the viewer into a voyeuristic yet tender observation of everyday experience, with lush, confident brushwork animating both figure and environment.
