Description:

The mask is painted in semi transparent gold paint, very slightly highlighted to emphasis light, with mask colour totally omitted to emphasise shade, over an abstract black and white background which was painted with a knife, thus creating a very contemporary feel overall.

It's only a small painting, but it produces a dramatic eye catching effect.

"Who knows what true loneliness is -- not the conventional word but the naked terror? To the lonely themselves it wears a mask. The most miserable outcast hugs some memory or some illusion."

Contact myself for more information about this beautiful work of art, or if you would like to purchase it. Obviously, the quality of the original painting and prints is much better than displayed here, though if you wish to make a closer inspection, please let me know of any specific area you're interested in and I'll e mail a higher resolution image to you.
