The addition of nacreous pigments enhances the artwork with a subtle iridescence, giving the piece a dynamic quality that changes with the light. These pigments create a shimmering effect, reflecting the multifaceted nature of Davids’s persona—graceful, powerful, and endlessly captivating. The interplay of light and color across the surface of the artwork mirrors the complexity and depth of her character, making this piece not just a portrait, but a celebration of her spirit.
