Modern Portrait - ink drawing with collage effects
This contemporary portrait is painted with India ink and coloured ink on high-quality Arches watercolour paper. The expressive painting technique - with splashes, flowing lines and layered ink textures - creates a dynamic and abstract character. By letting several transparent layers flow over each other and incorporating long drying times in between, an exciting play of depth and texture is created.
The work is further enriched with digital collage techniques: a realistic eye and a modern gold earring give the portrait an intriguing twist. This combination makes the painting part realistic and part abstract, with a postmodern and alienating effect.
This artwork is ideal for lovers of modern portraiture, abstract ink drawings and contemporary mixed-media art. The powerful contrast between flowing paint explosions and clean details makes this portrait a real eye-catcher in any interior - from minimalist to artistic and bohemian.
