Power in Pause is a 6×6 acrylic original that honors the strength found in stillness. A single figure sits in a raised‑arm pose — part yoga, part invocation — composed of vibrant, multicolored brushstrokes outlined in bold black. She floats in a field of textured turquoise, surrounded by symbols that feel like whispers of energy or fragments of inner knowing.

This painting is for the person who understands that pause is not emptiness — it’s presence. It’s the moment before becoming, the breath that gathers power, the quiet ritual that steadies the soul. In this surreal, tender scene, stillness becomes its own form of adornment.

A small altar to mindfulness, mythic serenity, and the absurd beauty of holding your own center.

Power in Pause is part of Lucy Suarez’s ongoing exploration of mythic absurdism. Small works that function as portals, talismans, and playful invitations into the unknown. At 6 × 6 inches it’s perfect for intimate spaces: a shelf, a bedside alter, a reading nook, or any corner that needs a spark of color and curiosity. Small wood easel to display is included.

Painting the absurd with sincerity.
