About this work

The painting features a striking black-and-white depiction of a snake's head, rendered in bold lines and textures. The snake's body is not visible, but its head dominates the composition, with its mouth open and tongue extended. The background is a mottled grey, with subtle shading that adds depth to the image. A notable detail is the snake's eye, which appears to be staring directly at the viewer. The eye is rendered in a simple yet effective manner, with a small circle for the pupil and a curved line for the eyelid. The use of gouache in this painting adds a sense of vibrancy and texture to the image. For more information on this technique, explore the world of gouache.
