About "Waves of Black III"

About the artwork

"Waves of Black" is a minimalist and abstract portrait of a woman composed of organic, flowing black lines that form her face. The lines are deliberately thick and confident, but move in a natural, undulating manner, as if gently guided by an invisible wind. This organic quality gives the work a rhythmic and lively character, keeping the face both present and evocative.

The right eyebrow is subtly emphasised with the same kind of black line, while the left side is deliberately left blank, adding a sense of asymmetry and playfulness. Her mouth and the suggestion of a nose are only implied by a few rounded, flowing lines, allowing the viewer to fill in the shapes themselves, bringing the portrait to life in the imagination.

The background is a soft, light beige surface, calm and inviting, incorporating delicate powder pink accents here and there. These subtle hues contrast harmoniously with the deep black lines and enhance the portrait's sensual, organic elegance.

The whole exudes a serene simplicity: a work of art where abstraction meets minimalism, and where the movement of the lines is a poetic expression of feminine forms and presence. "Waves of Black" invites contemplation, with every detail deliberately omitted to allow the power of suggestion and imagination to speak for itself. Modern Abstract. Simplicity. Line drawing
