Artist Description
There is a remarkable sense of stillness in Cushioned. Seated quietly with her body folded inward, the figure appears lost in thought, inviting viewers to pause and do the same. Forsyth captures the elegance of the human form with remarkable economy, allowing a handful of confident lines and subtle highlights to convey both presence and emotion.
The warm tone of the brown Canson paper plays an important role in the work's atmosphere. Rather than overwhelming the composition with detail, Forsyth leaves space for the viewer's imagination, creating a drawing that feels intimate, contemplative and timeless.
Lisette Forsyth's figurative works draw upon a long tradition of life drawing while remaining unmistakably contemporary. Measuring 51 x 70 cm framed, Cushioned is a unique original artwork that brings calm, sophistication and quiet beauty to a collection.
