About this work

This woman sits quietly, holding a small bouquet of flowers. Her head is wrapped in a colorful cloth, and she wears a long purple dress. The background looks like a rough, textured wall with faint blue and orange tones. The flowers in her lap are simple but bright, standing out against her dark dress. The whole painting has a handmade, slightly uneven look to it. If you like this style, check out Betye Saar.
