About this work

This painting shows a face and shoulders with bold, rough brushstrokes. The colors are mostly red, blue, and pink, with some white and black mixed in. The face looks simple but expressive, with a calm smile and closed eyes. The thick paint gives it a textured, almost sculpted look. This style suggests the artist used a technique where paint is applied heavily. Check out impasto to learn more about this painting method.
