‘Blue Steel’ (2024), 100cm x 100cm acrylic on canvas, graphite, pencil, oil pastel.
This painting is called Blue Steel, and it’s all about that mix of muscle and elegance you see in big architectural structures—like those giant steel beams holding up bridges or city towers. I kept thinking of scaffolding, tension cables, and all that behind-the-scenes stuff that makes a building stand tall.
The name also plays with that idea of something being cool, composed, and just a little intense. There’s strength here, but it’s not shouting. The lines are bold and deliberate, like a framework being drawn out, while the softer layers of blue and grey feel like the sky peeking through steel bones.
To me, it feels like walking through an unfinished building—full of potential, exposed beauty, and quiet energy. It’s got that industrial heartbeat but still feels open and airy. Definitely one for the architecture lovers, or anyone who appreciates a bit of edge with their calm.
