"As You Will" exemplifies wonderful simplicity in its execution, yet resonates profoundly with Ellison's signature themes of longing and the quest for transcendence. Against a backdrop of subdued hues, a celestial rainbow emerges, infusing the otherwise monochromatic scene with vibrant contrast and imbuing a sense of hope into its starkness. Reflective of Ellison's broader oeuvre during this period, the artwork draws inspiration from pastoral and agrarian sketches of bygone eras, reimagining them through a contemporary lens enriched with mixed media techniques.
