About this work

This face looks like it’s made of collage—patches of green, red, and gray. A big flower crown with bold red blooms sits on the head, and a pearl necklace drapes the neck. The eyes are wide, but the mouth is painted in a grin that feels a little off. The mix of textures—smooth, rough, and raised—makes it feel like touching different materials. The artist used a mix of printing methods, including embossing, which adds a 3D quality to parts of the image. Look up lithography next to see how it compares to the techniques used here.
