A hauntingly intimate portrait by Richard Wathen, *Greta* renders its subject in the artist's characteristically luminous and psychologically charged style, with oil on linen laid on aluminium lending the surface a subtle, cool radiance. The figure emerges with quiet intensity, Wathen's meticulous handling of paint capturing both the physical presence and an elusive inner life. The rigid aluminium support beneath the linen adds a structural permanence that contrasts with the fragile, contemplative humanity of the subject.
