This signed oil on masonite radiates with raw energy. The vibrant orange face dominates the composition, surrounded by deep black contour lines that pulse with intent. Pops of green and blue ground the piece in nature, while a splash of red adds tension and intrigue. Keil doesn't aim for realism. He paints the feeling of a face, the presence of a person, the immediacy of expression. It's a striking work that captures the moment an image becomes emotion. See less
