The surface is animated by a gentle scattering of paint, lending quiet texture to the stillness of the scene. Her posture is meditative, legs crossed and hands resting loosely in her lap, their forms outlined rather than defined. The long, flowing lines of her garments guide the eye inward, drawing attention to the inward turn of her head and the quiet curve of her body. Colour and form work together to express a moment of introspection.
