Description
This bold portrait is in the Expressionist style. It is a sophisticated composition, showing that the artist is aware of modern art movements and also is trained to emulate them. The paint ranges from thick impasto to thin dry-brush techniques. The white of the canvas shows through, revealing that the artist painted in a direct, forceful manner without hesitation. Note how there is a "frame" painted around the bottom and sides. It is possible that this is a self-portrait of the artist, who is looking into a mirror with beveled glass edges. Signed BOJ and dated '84, this oil painting is on a Norwegian canvas board. The painting was found in Chicago, and could be the work of an art student (whether an American or or a Scandinavian, hardly matters.) The artist shows accomplished talent. The painting board measures 16" x 12.75", the deep black wooden frame is 17" x 14". Item ID: COL-5 Fixed Price Shipping & Insurance on this item =$32.00
