Mix of Watercolor and pastels and some colored pencil on paper, 24x19 cm.
This painting exhibits characteristics of expressionism. The use of bold, unrefined brushstrokes and a vibrant, contrasting color palette emphasizes emotional intensity. The somewhat abstract portrayal of the figure and the dynamic, somewhat gestural application of paint further align with expressionist techniques, focusing on the subjective expression of inner experiences.
This painting, rich in emotional depth and abstract qualities, seems to convey a powerful, introspective moment. The central figure, defined by expressive lines and contrasting colors, appears to be in a state of contemplation or emotional turmoil. The use of earthy tones, such as browns and yellows, alongside the more vivid greens and the stark whites, adds to the complexity of the emotional landscape being depicted.
The figure is enveloped by what could be interpreted as wings or perhaps a metaphorical shield, suggesting themes of protection, vulnerability, or transformation. The posture, with the head bowed and the body enclosed by these wing-like forms, enhances the feeling of introspection or perhaps shielding from external forces.
