The Pink Stare, 2022

The Pink Stare, from October 2022 is a mixed media composition on canvas from the Twiggy series..

At the base of this composition is the iconic image of 16 years old Twiggy (Dame Lesley Lawson) photographed by Barry Lategan in 1966.

The printed picture is mirrored and transferred to the canvas.
Paper is roughly torn which results in a weatherworn aspect, reminding of a poster or a billboard.

The background is composed with several layers of acrylic paint. Paint is added, removed and/or scarred.
The portrait is finished with pencil, pastels and oil paint.
