Acrylic on paper, 31x46cm, March 2019
The painting shows a portrait of a young man in a three-quarter view, with the paint smoothly spread onto the paper with a palette knife. He is painted as a blur of colours without any central facial features, with only the rough shapes of the face and neck, hair and collar visible. The lush green background shines through the thin application of the paint on the portrait.
The hair and collar are both the same shade of blue with grey undertones. The face is painted in a mix of oranges, reds and whites, the edge of the face is indicated by bright red streaks which subtly show up within the hair and face as well
