Description :

This is a striking and highly textured original painting by artist Melanie Boone, dated 1992. The work features a captivating abstract portrait of a woman with intense green eyes, vivid red lips, and flowing red-orange hair. Executed in a rich, layered impasto style, the surface is heavily textured with dramatic brushstrokes and palette knife work that give it remarkable depth and movement.


The color palette blends earthy tones—burnt sienna, ochre, deep teal, and hints of plum—with bold accents, enhancing the subject’s expressive gaze. This one-of-a-kind piece is signed by the artist on the back, and the overall aesthetic leans toward expressionist and modernist influences.
