Portrait of a Woman:

Portrait of a Woman is a quiet introspection, a calm dignity, with a subtle sense of mystery in the downcast gaze

“Portrait of a Woman” is an acrylic-and-oil cubist study that reimagines a serene feminine visage through interlocking planes of color. The face is gently turned in profile, and its features are simplified into bold arcs and rectangles that merge the background and figure. Soft, almost marble-like skin tones are punctuated by a scarlet mouth and heavy-lidded eye, suggesting quiet contemplation. The interplay of translucent washes and opaque brushstrokes creates a subtle chiaroscuro, while the geometric lattice around the head evokes both stained‐glass windows and inner structure. The overall effect is a harmonious tension between stillness and architectural dynamism.
