Large expressive figurative drawing executed in charcoal and pastel, signed and dated 1981. The composition centers on a serene female face emerging from sweeping abstract movement, rendered in layered strokes of charcoal with dramatic passages of cobalt blue, rust, and deep black.
The artist uses broad gestural marks and soft pastel blending to create a sense of motion surrounding the figure, giving the piece a strong presence typical of early 1980s modernist and neo-expressionist studio work. The restrained facial features contrast with the energetic surrounding forms, producing a visually compelling focal point.
Signed by the artist with a copyright symbol and dated “81” in the lower corner. The exact artist name is difficult to decipher.
Presented under glass in a black gallery frame. The scale and dramatic palette make this a strong statement piece suitable for a living room, bedroom, studio, or gallery wall installation.
