In this portrait-oriented work, May explores the intersection of Pop Art sensibilities and the fluid nature of watercolour. Bold color choices define a series of stripes and geometric shapes that seem to vibrate against one another. The application of paint allows for subtle variations in saturation, giving the structured patterns a lived-in, vintage quality that avoids the coldness often found in purely digital abstraction.

The composition plays with the viewer's perception of depth, as the title suggests a movement between sharp focus and soft-edged abstraction. By fusing decorative arts history with a minimalist approach, the artist creates a rhythmic harmony. The classic frame anchors these energetic patterns, grounding the playful fusion of styles into a cohesive expression of color and form.
