Description
a portrait painting of a white woman with tan skin and yellow blonde hair. The painting is somewhat of an impressionist style with thick strokes of color that have a lot of texture. The right side of the woman's face becoems deconstructed into a series of small skin-toned strokes of paint that extend past her form near the edge of the page.
