Oil painting using the Impasto technique. Depicting a distressed and anguished human face. The image is rendered in a highly expressive style, utilizing shading and texture to convey emotion. The subject appears to be a man, with his eyes closed and mouth wide open in a scream or cry. His face is contorted with intense emotion, with deep furrows on his forehead and around his eyes, and his cheeks are drawn back, emphasizing the anguish. His hands are placed over his face, with his fingers splayed out and his palms covering his eyes, adding to the sense of distress. He is dressed in a suit, with a white shirt and a black tie, which contrasts sharply with the darker tones of the drawing. The background is a textured, dark gray surface with subtle variations, providing a stark contrast to the subject’s face and hands. The overall mood of the portrait is somber and dramatic, with a focus on the psychological and emotional turmoil of the subject. The artist has used a variety of techniques to create depth and texture, enhancing the realism and intensity of the expression.
