About the artwork

This powerful painting shows the outline of a woman's face with tousled hair, rendered as a line drawing. The artist has chosen thin, subtle lines to outline the facial features, emphasising the emotional intensity and expressive nature of the portrait. The background consists of a combination of light earth tones and deeper, cooler colours, enhanced by visible brushstrokes that add texture and depth to the work.

The woman's hair, wild and untamed, symbolises a sense of freedom and uncontrolled energy. Her face, with closed eyes and a serene expression, exudes inner peace and introspection. The thin lines and light brushstrokes give the whole picture a sense of fragility and subtlety, while the dramatic contrasts in colour and linework enhance the portrait's emotional power.

The background, with its mixture of warm and cool tones, contrasts beautifully with the dark lines of the face and hair. This contrast creates a visually captivating image that attracts and invites the viewer to look longer and reflect on the inner world of the depicted subject.

The delicate and spontaneous lines around the eyes and hair add a dynamic element to the painting, adding to the sense of movement and freedom. Evoking strong emotions, this painting offers a moment of contemplation and introspection for the viewer, while at the same time evoking feelings of freedom and mystery.
