Original artwork description:

This portrait is a reflection on identity, perception, and the multiplicity of inner experience. Painted using a combination of acrylic (underpainting) and oil on canvas, the work explores a stylized and slightly surreal depiction of the feminine form. The doubled features suggest a layered emotional reality.

I focused on contrasts: softness and strength, realism and abstraction, light and shadow. The textured garment adds a tactile element, grounding the otherwise dreamlike face in something physical. This piece was created intuitively, allowing the expression to emerge and evolve during the process.

Materials used:

acrylic and oil
