Descriptions:
Broken Circles is an expressive oil painting on canvas that captures the tension between vulnerability and strength through bold gesture and layered color. Painted at an intimate 23.5 x 23.5 inches,the composition centers on the human figure, rendered with confident, tactile brushwork that reveals both physical presence and emotional depth.
Fragmented circular lines move across the surface, suggesting cycles that fracture and reform, symbols of identity, resilience, and inner transformation. Rich greens and deep blues surround warmer flesh tones, creating a charged atmosphere that feels raw yet quietly reflective. This original work offers collectors a powerful figurative piece that invites connection, contemplation, and a sense of shared human experience.

About the artist

Melinda is a London based artist, she was born as an ethnic Hungarian in Romania in 1976. In 2009 she graduated from the University of Art and Design, Cluj-Napoca receiving her BA in Fine Art, Painting. She earlier studied Fresco Painting and worked until 2012 as a mural painter in churches of Transylvania. She moved to England in 2013.
Melinda’s interest in psychology and her research for understanding the source that adds meaning to ones life is one of the major influences in her work. Her main focus is the human condition, the internal world one experiences amidst the expectations of society.
In her creative process colour and texture are equally important, as well as the deconstruction of forms which allows her to find an equilibrium between figuration and abstraction. Though she considers herself a figurative painter, the dynamism she creates through breaking up the forms sometimes make her work look abstract from a close view.
