Original artwork description:

In this acrylic expression, I dove deep into the visceral realm of human emotion. The brushstrokes capture the subject's inner turmoil and contemplation, utilizing an expressionist touch to convey a complexity of feelings. This figurative work embodies the search for understanding, symbolically painting not just a portrait, but a soul's questioning moment. It's designed to energize the viewer's home with introspection and provoke personal reflection.
It is is one of my large scale portrait works, done with acrylics over stretched canvas with jute fabric.
In these expressive close-up portraits my intent is to get beyond the regular facial features, catching clear psychological emotion. Hopes, dreams, pain, disappointment and such, all of them too human emotional conditions are among the themes I'm working on. The combination between the roughness of the jute fabric and fine art painting gives more deepness and physical feeling to the work.
The painting measures 80 x 120 x 2 cm.
