Cinnabar is an abstract painting defined by a strong horizontal division and a richly textured surface. A luminous field of celadon green sits above a deep cinnabar red, creating a grounded composition shaped by contrast and balance.

Built with oil and cold wax, the surface reveals subtle shifts, scraped marks, and traces of earlier layers beneath. Texture and colour carry the work, inviting close viewing and quiet reflection rather than overt gesture.

Cinnabar is one half of a diptych with Celadon, conceived to be shown together or individually, each painting offering its own presence while reinforcing the relationship between the two.
