Perched on a delicate wire, the tauhou (waxeye) locks eyes with the viewer, its golden gaze unwavering, almost daring. There is something knowing in its expression—a silent challenge to shift perspective, to look deeper, to question what we think we understand.
The abstract textures and washes of blue, rust, and gold mirror the complexity of perception itself—what appears simple at first glance may hold hidden depths. The tauhou, though small, carries a presence far greater than its size. It is a reminder that wisdom is often found in quiet observation, in pausing long enough to see what lies beyond the obvious.
This mixed-media piece invites you to meet its gaze, to embrace curiosity, and to open yourself to new ways of seeing. Golden Gaze of the Tauhou is more than a painting—it is an invitation, a moment of connection, a call to explore the unseen.
