In the green

As the title suggests, the work has an organic feel, with the colour green dominating the palette, which evoke notions of nature, growth and rejuvenation. The face emerges from its green surroundings, blurring the boundaries between the figure and the space it occupies. The surrouding greenery is created with short, brushy strokes that vary in lightness, which play into ideas of foliage or abstract fields. The brushtrokes curve and swirl around the canvas to create a sense of movement in contrast to the face’s neutral pose.
