Words cannot describe the feeling that exhudes through this nude study.
Painted mainly with Paine's Grey, "Free Spirit" speaks of a moment in time. Not a person in particular but a joyful sensation, a perception of reality and a surreal juxtaposition.

Questioning the status quo of the admissible beauty standards, this work hints at the early 60's aesthetic of Chrome designs and glossy alien space-ships. Hence, by reverting to an assumption of 'traditional revolution' and liberation of the image, the work's double entente is exposed to the criticism of contemporary views.
