About this work

This painting shows a woman’s face and shoulders, looking down with a soft smile. Her skin is warm brown, and her hair is dark with a single red flower tucked behind her ear. The background is dark, making her face stand out. She wears a red garment with a white collar, and her hand rests lightly on her chest. The red flower in her hair is the only bright spot in the painting, drawing your eye. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, giving the skin a lively feel. Next, look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
