Pale Blue Eyes

A striking figurative work rendered in Ozbolt's characteristically sardonic and painterly style, *Pale Blue Eyes* employs acrylic on canvas to evoke a haunting sense of portraiture that blurs the line between the familiar and the uncanny. The title's lyrical quality suggests an underlying romanticism or melancholy, while Ozbolt's layered brushwork and muted tonal palette lend the image a theatrical, almost cinematic tension. The work reflects the artist's ongoing engagement with art historical references and pop cultural fragments, fusing them into a composition that is at once playful and deeply unsettling.
