Julie Verhoeven, Director, London

Description

An illustrative rendering shows a profile view of a person's face, primarily in black, white, and grey tones. The image is an artistic rendering of a female figure. Bold black brushstrokes define the hair. Heavy dark makeup surrounds the eye, and there is a faux ear attached to the side of the head. The painting technique gives the work a textured, almost watercolor-like appearance with soft edges. The overall effect is dramatic and theatrical, with a focus on contrasting light and shadow. The background is kept simple and muted.
