Excellent artwork 👌

What's the medium and size Doreen? I like this.

Very interesting. More info please.

Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments! It’s done from a photo which is a bit weird, it’s a photo found on the internet of the effects of sever inbreeding, a picture of a person who has only one eye and two ears on their face a small nose and no mouth, have the photo I worked it from. Did it as an abstract, on canvas in acrylic paint, has gesso underneath, will be putting gloss over the top and stretch canvas onto a wooden frame, size is 40x60cm.

I like the way the movement goes towards the centre, giving the impression of closed in contact...the result of inbreeding. You have translated this very well, and your palette is very effective.

Thank you Ruth Dolan

About the Artist
Doreen Thomas

I paint in my leisure time, started last year and very much enjoying it. Started painting from photographs, doing contemporary works, but recently doing abstract and abstract realism artwork. Like bold colours bursting with energy and dramatic shapes and forms. Want the viewer to feel strong…
