Fiona

Lita Cabellut's *Fiona* is a striking large-scale work rendered in oil and mixed media on linen, showcasing the artist's signature technique of layering textured, fresco-like surfaces that evoke both ancient portraiture and raw emotional depth. The figure emerges through weathered, cracked passages of paint, lending the work a timeless, almost archaeological quality. Cabellut's masterful handling of light and shadow breathes intense psychological presence into the subject, blurring the boundary between vulnerability and resilience.
