About "Bold Expressionist Portrait of a Woman"
by Jan Keteleer
About the artwork
This painting is a vivid exploration of emotion and identity, brought to life through bold colors and textured brushstrokes. As the artist, I sought to capture the raw intensity of human expression, using the woman as a vessel for contemplation and duality. Her face, divided starkly between vibrant red and pale cream, symbolizes the inner conflict we all carry—passion and vulnerability, strength and fragility.
The impasto technique was intentional, allowing the brushstrokes to become part of the narrative. Each layer of paint adds depth, creating a tactile connection between the viewer and the subject. Her gaze, intense and unyielding, invites introspection, while the dramatic shadows around her eyes amplify her emotional weight.
The abstract background mirrors her complexity, with its interplay of reds, oranges, and dark tones. It’s not just a backdrop but an extension of her psyche—chaotic yet harmonious. The bare torso, sculpted with bold strokes, emphasizes her humanity, stripped of pretense.
This piece is not about realism but about feeling. It’s an invitation to pause, to see beyond the surface, and to connect with the unspoken emotions that define us. Through this work, I aimed to evoke both discomfort and beauty, leaving interpretation open to the viewer.
