This expressive oil painting portrays a faceless human figure emerging from a muted, swirling background. Painted with heavy, textured brushstrokes in earthy browns, ochres, and flesh tones, the piece evokes a haunting sense of identity in flux. The absence of defined eyes transforms the portrait into a psychological exploration — suggesting themes of inner struggle, anonymity, memory, and the fragmented self. The rough, impasto technique and stark contrast between the subject and the soft grey halo behind them draw the viewer inward, inviting contemplation of the human condition beneath the surface.
Heavy textured, impasto oil and cold wax.
High contrast, abstract portrait in a dark art style.
The edges show progression of the painting.
UV resistant varnished for added protection.
Signed and dated on the back.
Oil, varnish, cold wax
