Cobalt Mantle
Cobalt Mantle, 2025
Alcohol ink on Yupo paper; protected with UV archival varnish against fading.
11 × 14 inches
Cobalt Mantle is a commanding study in contrast and depth. Dense sapphire blues pool like liquid velvet, pushing against jagged, almost volcanic strokes of blackened green and acidic yellow. The composition suggests a tension between shadow and illumination—between the weight of darkness and the brilliance of emergence. There’s an elemental rawness to this work, as though you’re witnessing the surface of a new world, cracked open by tectonic color. With its restrained palette and atmospheric energy, Cobalt Mantle is at once grounded and otherworldly, a moment of transformation suspended in ink.
