About this work

This looks like a face carved or drawn into a rough, wood-like material. The shape is simple but striking—big eyes, a nose, and a mouth, all outlined by jagged edges. Small holes dot the surface, giving it a textured, almost lumpy look. The face has a hollow, almost mask-like quality, with some dark smudges near the eyes. It’s mounted against a plain background, making the wood stand out even more. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
