Whiskey & Smoke" is a deep, evocative portrait of a woman in a wide-brimmed hat, captured in a moment of solitary reflection. The painting is a fusion of mystery and nostalgia, where the intense red of the armchair dramatically contrasts with the cool navy blue of her attire and the golden glow of the background.
​The figure, whose face remains obscured by shadow, holds a glass of amber liquor and a lit cigarette, giving the composition a cinematic, smoky ambiance. This is a painting about the woman who sits with her thoughts — unapologetic, unbothered, and beautifully undone.

​Elements and Symbolism
​Mystery in Shadow: The hat, which conceals her face, makes the figure universal — she could be anyone in a moment of deep contemplation.

​Personal Heritage:
Every element carries a personal story from the artist (grandmother's hat, mother's cigarette, the artist's own glass).

​Emotional Colours:
Red (passion, comfort), Navy Blue (depth, melancholy), and Golden Beige (warmth, nostalgia).
