Man in a Striped Shirt — Mixed Media Portrait (2026) Original Mixed-media Painting by Natalia Miasnikova

This expressive portrait is created using a combination of watercolor and oil pastel. Transparent watercolor washes blend with confident pastel lines, creating a vivid and emotional image. The man in the striped shirt gazes into the distance, as if lost in memories or dreaming of future journeys.

The restrained palette of blues, grays, and warm ochre tones gives the artwork a sense of calmness and inner strength. The striped shirt evokes classic maritime traditions, lending the portrait a subtle nautical character and a touch of romance associated with distant shores and sea adventures.
