Olivia

“Olivia”
Original Painting: 24 x 36in • Acrylic and Oil Pastels on Canvas
Olivia is painted in a surreal, caricature-like style, characterized by exaggerated proportions, particularly in the facial features and elongated neck. My goal was for this stylistic choice to evoke a sense of whimsy and intrigue. Her expression is both enigmatic and contemplative, inviting viewers to ponder her mood and story. For this painting I used smooth brushwork with subtle textures visible in the background.
Olivia is a playful blend of surrealism and portraiture capturing attention through its bold color palette and imaginative portrayal, making it a memorable work that encourages viewers to engage with its narrative possibilities.
