Untitled is a 1990 oil by Whitfield Lovell, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting features a man in a hat and coat, with a gun in the foreground. The background is a mix of orange and brown hues, with handwritten text that appears to be a story or poem. The text is written in a flowing script, but it's difficult to decipher the exact words. The overall effect is one of mystery and intrigue, with the man's face and the gun drawing the viewer's attention. The use of oilstick and charcoal on paper gives the painting a textured, almost three-dimensional quality. If you're interested in learning more about the artist's use of mixed media, you might want to explore the work of Whitfield Lovell.
