Description

This tall, narrow mixed media or oil-on-canvas artwork presents a stylized portrait in warm, saturated tones of red, orange, and plum. The elongated facial features, simplified shapes, and expressive brushwork suggest influence from modernist and expressionist movements, possibly inspired by artists such as Amedeo Modigliani or the mid-century school of Latin American and European abstract figurative painters. The subject’s vertical format and focused gaze draw the viewer’s eye upward, enhancing its dramatic effect.

Though the signature appears partly obscured in the lower section, it resembles the style of late-20th-century decorative or gallery art produced for regional exhibitions and boutique galleries. The framing label from About Art Framing Gallery in Louisville, Kentucky, indicates the piece was professionally framed locally, likely between the late 1990s and early 2000s. The use of vivid color fields and textured application aligns with contemporary art trends from that era, making it a striking conversation piece suited for modern interiors.
