The “Khloe” figurative art painting by Troy Hyde stands as a testament to the exploration of human form and abstraction. Evoking the profound simplicity of the human body’s natural lines and curves, this painting captures a singular moment of stillness. Through minimalist shapes rendered in jet black gouache, Hyde invites the viewer into an intimate dialogue with the form.

“Khloe” is an original one-off artwork, using the stark contrast of black against fine art paper to underscore the purity and rawness of the shapes. The choice of a single colour amplifies the interplay between form and void, light and dark, creating a dynamic tension that draws the viewer deeper into the work. The abstract qualities of the shapes make for continuous engagement.

Hand-painted with Winsor & Newton gouache on the finest 100% cotton fibre paper, the artwork’s precise lines and profound blackness create a striking visual and tactile experience. The heavyweight 250gsm paper features two deckle edges along the left and right sides, adding to its unique charm and inviting touch.
