About the artwork

7 Virtues is a large-scale contemporary cubist oil painting. Created over four focused days using a labor-intensive technique—dyeing raw linen with oil pigments and chemicals, then washing away layers—the process mirrors the complexity of its subject. Each virtue—Chastity, Temperance, Charity, Diligence, Patience, Kindness, and Humility—is embodied by a woman rendered from multiple angles, capturing both strength and vulnerability. The muted palette and textured surface evoke a sense of timelessness, echoing sacred art while engaging with modern questions of value and identity.
