Portrait artwork in bold, luminous color by Jessa Lamoureux.
Humid is an early milestone in the development of my chromatic realism at the intersect of emotional tension, and structured color.

Humid

Acrylic on canvas

Humid marks a significant shift toward psychological intensity within my chromatic work. A vertical divide of saturated color cuts through the face, creating a palpable sense of tension and duality. Reds, blues, greens, and yellows operate not only as lighting but as emotional architecture, shaping the expression with deliberate contrast and internal pressure.

This piece stands as an early milestone in the development of my chromatic realism—where close cropping, emotional tension, and structured color converge for the first time.
