Original artwork description:

MY HAIR IS A MESS is a small abstract expressionist painting (40 × 30 cm) created with bold, gestural brushstrokes and subtle surface texture. This contemporary artwork captures emotional spontaneity and physical presence through its dynamic composition and unified color palette. The upper section bursts with wild, layered movement—an abstract “tangle” that evokes both chaos and vitality.

Painted during a time of physical limitation, the artist used only one hand, resulting in a raw, intuitive process that left visible traces of touch and impulse. While the texture is present, it remains understated, allowing the gestural energy and compositional rhythm to take center stage. The strong central form anchors the piece, creating a “painting within a painting” effect that adds depth and intrigue.

Ideal for collectors of small abstract art, gestural paintings, and contemporary minimalist canvases, this piece offers emotional resonance and a bold visual statement. Whether displayed in a quiet interior or a vibrant gallery wall, MY HAIR IS A MESS brings movement, story, and personality to any space.
