A striking portrait painting with clear expressionist & modernist influences. The figure, an elongated woman with exaggerated facial features, features prominent, wide-set eyes, arched eyebrows, a long nose & a small, pursed mouth painted in vibrant red. A muted, neutral background makes her face & expression stand out dramatically.
Given the modern, somewhat whimsical & textured style of this piece, Juan Carlos Cortés is likely the artist behind it.
