Artwork Detail - V6

Watercolour Painting
after 1964
Watercolour on paper
paper size: 40 cm x 30 cm
Watercolour of an Indigenous style mask, likely from the Northwest Coast. The figure has human features including large open eyes and a slightly downturned motuh. There are details on their cheeks, upper lip and forehead, likely representing painted details on the original mask. The mask is done rough brushstrokes of light grey, medium grey and black. Most of the space is taken up by the mask, but the rest of the background is light-grey in colour. Some highlights on have intentionally been left the white of the page.
