Lucas Jaymes

Oil on canvas  ·  16 x 20 x .5

Lucas Jaymes is a 16 x 20 oil portrait built on light and warmth. Soft ambers, peachy skin tones, and a loose golden background keep attention centered on the child's face. He sits in his bold striped shirt — navy, red, and white — looking directly outward with that particular baby expression: fully engaged, completely unguarded, not a trace of performance in it. The paint moves smoothly across the face with subtle blending, the background staying loose and warm around him. A moment of affection turned into oil and canvas.
