This print shows a strange face with a tree growing out of its head. The face has big hands holding its cheeks, and its mouth is wide open like it’s screaming. The tree has thick red roots and branches that look like tangled wires. The background is a flat, light brown color with dark lines for clouds. The artist used bold black lines and solid red shapes to make the image stand out. The way the face and tree mix feels unsettling, like something out of a dream. If you like this style, look up Diego Rivera.
