This painting shows a face split in two. The top half has a white puff of feathers for hair, a blue forehead, and a pink cheek. The bottom half is smooth, with bright pink lips and a gradient of orange and yellow skin. The artist stuck real feathers onto the print to make the hair. It’s not a portrait—just bold colors and a playful twist. Check out Martial Raysse to see more of his quirky, colorful work.
